UCSF Received $150M Anonymous Donation for Cancer Research
The University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) has received an anonymous donation of $150 million – the largest philanthropic commitment from an individual ever given to the university – to support research at UCSF’s Cancer Center.
The funds will be utilized to boost UCSF’s efforts to become a world leader in cancer care and a West Coast hub for experimental therapies in treating cancer patients and for the development of a world-class database system that will eventually support individualized patient therapies.
According to Frank McCormick, the UCSF’s Cancer Center program’s director:
“The magnitude of this gift reflects the enormity of need for funding in both cancer research and the translation of that research into successful therapies for every patient.”
