The Advancing Medicine Fund
The Advancing Medicine Fund supports endeavors in the Weill Department of Medicine to truly make a difference in:
- delivering outstanding patient care
- the education of physician-scientists
- the development of groundbreaking research
Our physicians receive patients from all walks of life of the multicultural communities of New York City, as well as from around the world. Many of our patients face life-threatening diseases, from cancers and heart disease, to kidney and infectious diseases. Life-saving therapies and treatments provided within the Weill Department of Medicine have ensured successful outcomes for our patients.
The Fund for the Future
The Fund for the Future provides support for physician scientists who are trying to balance the increasing demands of clinical productivity with the development of their academic careers — a career phase that can be characterized as the ‘valley of vulnerability.’ By providing $300,000 over a three year period, awardees are provided with funds to protect their time, as well as for research staff and supplies for a competitively reviewed research project of their design. Funding these physician-scientists and physician-educators helps us expedite their career development and helps create the environment that fosters development of academic leaders of tomorrow.
The Racial Justice Fund
The Weill Department of Medicine Racial Justice Fund directs financial support to community based organizations focused on racial and social justice in New York City. We invite pledges of financial support from our Divisions and individual members of our Department and the community at large.
The Residency Innovation Fund
The Residency Innovation Fund provides support for the house officer training program that trains 140 residents per year. The fund allows the purchase of specialty equipment, expansion of technology uses, support for travel to conferences, and research and other academic projects that allow the program to advance, evolve and remain at the forefront of medical education and care.
