Meyer Cancer Center’s dedicated scientific community and staff relentlessly pursue our fundamental mission: propelling cancer prevention and care forward through pioneering scientific exploration and actively involving communities to equitably alleviate the cancer burden.
Dear Friends,
For the past decade, the Sandra and Edward Meyer Cancer Center at Weill Cornell Medicine has remained steadfast in its mission to drive ground-breaking innovations in science and medicine that will advance outcomes and promote equity across the cancer continuum.
Through impactful recruitments, research productivity and intentional community outreach and engagement, the Meyer Cancer Center continued to be a leading cancer center in the country in the past year. True to our one Meyer Cancer Center ethos, transdisciplinary teams of basic and clinician-scientists across our network in Brooklyn, Manhattan and Queens collaborated closely to improve the prevention, detection and treatment of cancer, further advancing research discovery and translational clinical care. With the creation of a Research Advisory Council, we continued to strengthen our partnership with the community, fostering a dynamic exchange of ideas between researchers and the very individuals we are dedicated to serving.
These achievements and more are covered in this year’s annual report. I’m so proud of what we’ve accomplished together and look forward to an even better year ahead!
Dr. Jedd Wolchok
Sandra and Edward Meyer Director, Meyer Cancer Center
From Brooklyn to Manhattan to Queens, we are engaging communities and patients for a direct and equitable impact on cancer research and care.
