Securing the Pipeline of Discovery
Medical breakthroughs don’t happen overnight. They arrive only after years of sustained investment: investment in research, investment in trials, but most of all investment in training the scientists with the will, skill, and grit to take on the most pressing questions in biomedical research. Scientists in training are medicine's future. But right now, that future is at risk. The sudden termination of federal funding threatens to sever the pipeline of discovery.
Columbia is home to some of the most promising emerging research talent in the world. Time and again, trainee scientists right here in our labs make groundbreaking contributions to our understanding of biology and disease. These bright, innovative minds have the potential to revolutionize healthcare - but without funding, their vital work and their careers are in jeopardy.
Your support can ensure that these future scientists don’t have to abandon their passion for transforming health by driving discovery. Join us by making a gift to support the Emerging Leaders in Science Fund.
