About NFCR
Webster K. Cavenee, Ph.D
In 1973, the National Foundation for Cancer Research was founded with a donation of $25 and a mission to support innovative cancer research.
To date, we have contributed over $309 million to cancer researchers around the world. We support multidisciplinary approaches that uncover the genetic and molecular foundations of cancer.
Our "laboratory without walls" connects global research leaders, enabling them to pursue new leads and collaborate with colleagues. We believe in Research for a Cure: with your help, we can achieve our goal of a cancer-free world.
