The Cancer Strategic Support Fund (313545) provides the flexibility to prioritize high-impact opportunities across the cancer program – where and when they’re needed most. Examples include recruitment and startup packages for top faculty, next-generation technology and research infrastructure, seed funds for pioneering work in genomics and microRNA science, and new computational initiatives that leverage the power of AI and big data.
The Next Generation of Breakthroughs
Philanthropy has never been more important for:
- Exploring the basic science of how cancers emerge, evolve, exist and exert damage in order to develop innovations in prevention, detection, treatment and care
- Embracing population heterogeneity to reveal novel findings and remove barriers to cancer care created by geography, socioeconomic factors, age and other risk indicators
- Fostering creativity, innovation, empowerment and momentum among the next generation of cancer leaders and positioning them to thrive as physician-scientists
Under Dr. Rathmell’s leadership, the Cancer Strategic Support Fund acts as a catalyst for Ohio State to foster relentless innovation and deliver the very best clinical outcomes to every cancer patient, every time, regardless of diagnosis.
