Meyer Cancer Center The Sandra and Edward Meyer Cancer Center at Weill Cornell Medical College

The Meyer Cancer Center at Weill Cornell Medical Center is committed to advancing cancer prevention and care through innovative scientific discovery and personalized, multidisciplinary patient care. We connect patients to world-class clinical care and prevention strategies and work closely with communities to research and address disparities in cancer care. Our cutting-edge education programs trai

n the next generation of leaders in cancer science and care delivery, many of whom go on to impact biomedical research across America and around the world. We engage more than 250 basic scientists, pathologists, bioinformaticians, surgeons, radiation oncologists and radiologists, who collaborate with colleagues at Cornellโ€™s Ithaca campus and other institutions--including Memorial Sloan Kettering, Columbia University, Rockefeller University, New York Methodist Hospital, the New York Genome Center, and Weill Cornellโ€™s Institute for Precision Medicine--to move their discoveries from the bench to clinical trials and ultimately into therapies for patients.

Congratulations to the six recipients of our 2026 Meyer Cancer Center Pilot Program awards.

Pilot funding supports early-stage, high-risk ideas โ€” the kind of work that needs preliminary data before it can compete for federal funding. It's often where a lab's next major project begins.

Congratulations to all โ€” we're looking forward to seeing where this work goes.

๐ŸŽ‰ Three FDA approvals. One incredible team.

We are proud to celebrate three recent FDA approvals supported by patient enrollment right here at the Meyer Cancer Center:

โœ… Inqovi + venetoclax for newly diagnosed AML in older or less fit adults
โœ… Tregzi, the first Treg cell-based immunotherapy for chronic GVHD prevention in blood cancer patients undergoing stem cell transplant
โœ… Pluvicto for PSMA-positive metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer

Every patient enrolled and every study supported brings promising treatments closer to the people who need them most. Congratulations and thank you to our Cancer Clinical Trials Office team, whose work made these enrollments possible! ๐Ÿ‘

Our Director, Dr. Jedd Wolchok, took MCC science west last week โ€” presenting at Stanford Cancer Institute 's Breakthroughs in Cancer seminar series on his first visit to Stanford.

A full day of science, new collaborations, and great questions from Stanford trainees. Thank you to the Stanford Cancer Institute for the warm welcome.

A first in the University's history. ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ท

Dr. Eleni Andreopoulou has been named Honorary Professor of Medicine at the University of Ioannina, Greece โ€” the first woman ever to receive the University's highest academic distinction, awarded for longstanding contributions to education, research, and the advancement of healthcare.

The honor came at her alma mater, on a campus in Epirus near the ancient oracle and theatre of Dodona โ€” the oldest oracle in Hellenic literature, named in both the Iliad and the Odyssey. Fittingly, the hand-embroidered academic gowns take their motifs from antiquity.

Congratulations, Dr. Andreopoulou! ๐Ÿ‘
