Friends of the Medical Center

The Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons and Columbia University Irving Medical Center bring together research and patient care to improve health and save lives. Every day, physicians and scientists pursue new discoveries that expand our understanding of disease and lead to better care for patients. Philanthropy gives this work the flexibility and momentum to keep moving forward, from early ideas in the laboratory to advances that change how illness is prevented and treated. Your support helps open the door to new treatments and healthier futures.
