The Department of Epidemiology at Columbia University, one of the oldest and most distinguished departments of epidemiology in the world, traces its history back to the year 1918 and a generous endowment from the De Lamar estate. Joseph Raphael De Lamar, a Dutch seaman who became a wealthy and prominent gold and silver mine owner, financier, and speculator in the western United States and Canada,

left $5 million to the Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons. The purpose of his legacy was "to provide for the study and teaching of the origin and cause of human disease and the prevention thereof, and for the study and teaching of dietetics and of the effect of different food and diet."
