Dear Friends and Colleagues,
It is our pleasure to present you with the inaugural edition of Milestones, the Discoveries that Make a Difference Campaign newsletter, which showcases Weill Cornell’s activities during this exciting phase of growth for the Medical College. In this first newsletter of the Campaign, we will share information on how the institution is making strides to build a state-of-the-art research facility that will double the Medical College’s current laboratory space, and we will provide you with a recap of an historic year of unprecedented philanthropy. Finally, you will see how we are moving forward with new lifesaving research that will alter the manner in which medicine is delivered, not only in New York, but also in places like Doha, Qatar and throughout our global community.
The promise of our research initiatives will bring us into a new era
of possibilities for Weill Cornell – one in which we will generate
new knowledge and use that knowledge to save lives and improve the
quality of life for countless people who are looking to us for more
effective treatments and new hope.
We thank you for your continued support and welcome the opportunity
to share exciting news of our progress in this and future editions
of Milestones.
Sincerely,
Antonio M. Gotto, Jr., M.D.
