What a remarkable start to the year for our community!
First and foremost, please join me in celebrating a transformative, $50 million donation from philanthropist and businessman Kenneth C. Griffin to Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, part of the Miller School of Medicine. This generous gift will propel groundbreaking therapies and advance unparalleled care for those affected by cancer.
Furthermore, I am delighted to share that several of our departments surged in the 2023 Blue Ridge Institute for Medical Research rankings, which are based on National Institutes of Health funding. We remain Florida’s No. 1 medical school for federal research grants and seven of our programs are ranked among the top 25 nationally.
