Milestones

Individuals, civic groups, companies and even musical artists have shown their support for Weill Cornell Medicine’s front-line healthcare workers with a wide range of in-kind gifts.

Since the beginning of the COVID-19 crisis, the Weill Cornell Medicine community has worked together, under extraordinary circumstances, to combat this virus and save lives. This ethos – that we are stronger when we work together – has long informed our culture at Weill Cornell Medicine.

Inspired by his time at Weill Cornell Medicine as a medical student, graduate student and faculty member in the Department of Neurological Surgery, Dr. Robert Hariri (MD ’87, PhD ’87) and his wife, Margaret, have established the Margaret and Robert J. Hariri, MD ’87, PhD ’87 Professorship of Neurological Surgery with a generous $3 million gift to the institution.

With a generous gift in support of the Department of Radiology’s Division of Molecular Imaging and Therapeutics – formerly known as the Division of Nuclear Medicine – a Weill Cornell Medicine alumnus and his wife hope to make a significant impact on research.
