We will bestow our highest honors on outstanding individuals whose contributions to cancer research—through scientific discovery or philanthropic leadership—have significantly advanced our mission to save more lives through immunotherapy: Innovators in Science and Philanthropy

The Cancer Research Institute is the world's leading nonprofit funder of global research efforts aimed at unleashing our immune system's natural ability to eliminate cancer. This important work, borne of generations of visionary dedication to the idea of cancer immunotherapy, is helping to save more lives now and will continue to do so for generations to come.
