Video: A Look Inside the Geoffrey Beene Cancer Research Center

For the past seven years, the Geoffrey Beene Cancer Research Center (GBCRC) at Memorial Sloan-Kettering has been giving investigators direct support to explore new and revolutionary ideas through a progressive model of funding. To date, the Geoffrey Beene Foundation and Geoffrey Beene, LLC, have awarded a total of $132 million to this collaborative research center, which brings together investigators from the Sloan-Kettering Institute’s Cancer Biology and Genetics Program and the Human Oncology and Pathogenesis Program.

“The Geoffrey Beene Center takes a new approach to modern cancer research with the ultimate goal of translating basic discoveries into new ways to think about treating cancer,” says GBCRC Chair Scott W. Lowe, who is a member of the Cancer Biology and Genetics Program and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator.
