 Endowed Chairs

The highest honor an institution can award to a member of its faculty, an endowed chair recognizes a premier scientist and enhances the recruitment and retention of nationally-renowned leaders.  This honor also links a donor publicly and in perpetuity with the most accomplished men and women in science and medicine.

Endowed chairs allow City of Hope to attract and retain some of the boldest, most inquisitive thinkers in science and medicine today. Ensured of long-term financial support to help enable the development of their novel ideas, these distinguished men and women bring tremendous intellectual capital to conquering disease.
