Supporting the Future of Medicine

| Mr. Gene Feiner |
The initial work of the Center was made possible thanks to a group of friends who were dedicated to its research activities. By funding first-rate laboratory facilities, their generosity supports in an ongoing way a series of novel investigations that seek to inform the latest in clinical care.
