Acknowledgments

We continuously strive to honor the memory of Herbert and Florence Irving and the entire Irving family. Their enduring vision and generosity continue to guide and inspire the work that we do. The transformative support they set in motion has allowed the Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center to push the boundaries of cancer prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. Their legacy—and the ongoing generosity of every one of our benefactors allows us to sustain our mission to end cancer everywhere.

We also extend our heartfelt gratitude to our dedicated advisors and leadership. The members of our advisory committees provide invaluable guidance as we work to reduce the impact of cancer on patients, families, and communities. Our leadership team’s expertise and dedication continue to nurture a culture of collaboration, discovery, and whole-person cancer care.
