Testimonials
“Cancer is a disease that can be cure…”
- Albert Szent-Györgyi
M.D., Ph.D. 1937 Nobel Laureate, NFCR Co-Founder
“As a metastatic breast cancer patient undergoing treatment, I intimately know that patients and research are in a marathon. The record speed in the development of the COVID-19 vaccine came from the groundwork of past research. Other diseases demand similar critical attention and research. We have supported NFCR since 1999. We appreciate that their national position promotes a thoughtful continuum where feedback loops from across the country to inform research, coordination, and collaboration. NFCR helps break down the silos that stifle research.”
- ERIKA CORNELISEN
Late supporter and Former Executive Director, The Alvin H. Baum Fund
“Donors are the linchpin. Not only do I thank you, the World will thank you.”
- Dr. Web Cavenee
