In a celebration of Weill Cornell Medicine’s commitment to fostering inclusivity in academic medicine, the institution on April 25 honored nearly a dozen faculty, students and staff who exemplify excellence in diversity, equity and inclusion.

A protein commonly found at high levels in lung cancer cells controls a major immunosuppressive pathway that allows lung tumors to evade immune attack.

The fifth annual symposium spotlighted an expanding list of entrepreneurial translation efforts at the institution.

Dr. Juan Cubillos-Ruiz got his first look at ovarian cancer early in his doctoral research, which focused on understanding how the microenvironment of a tumor affects a patient’s immune system. 

A molecular pathway known for responding to cellular stress also produces pain-inducing molecules in immune cells, according to a new study by scientists at Weill Cornell Medicine, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard Medical School and Wake Forest University School of Medicine.

Awards, honors, prizes and achievements for the month of February.

Eight Weill Cornell Medicine faculty members have been selected for the fifth round of the Daedalus Fund for Innovation awards, a pioneering institutional program that helps advance promising applied and translational research projects and emerging technologies that have commercial potential.

Ovarian tumors disable the immune system’s killer T cells—which protect the body by destroying infected or malignant cells—enabling the disease to flourish unchecked, according to a new study by Weill Cornell Medicine scientists.

Four Weill Cornell Medicine investigators have been awarded the Pershing Square Sohn Prize for Young Investigators in Cancer Research to support their research projects.

Weill Cornell Medicine investigators have been awarded a one-year, $10,000 grant from Colleen’s Dream Foundation to define the role of a potentially crucial biomarker in the treatment of ovarian cancer tumors.

Startup Symposium and Poster Session Scheduled for Jan. 26
