Kathryn V. Anderson, PhD

It is with deepest sadness that we report the passing of Kathryn V. Anderson, PhD. Kathryn was a brilliant scientist, exceptional mentor, and wonderful colleague. We are devastated by her loss, but inspired by her immeasurable contributions to the Sloan Kettering Institute, and to the wider scientific community. We encourage you to please return here soon, as this website will be updated shortly with more information about the life and legacy of Dr. Anderson.
