Sandy Hutchens with some news from Mount Sinai Hospital FoundationHello Sandy,

Congratulations to Dr. Jeffrey Wrana, winner of the Premier’s Summit Award for Medical Research! Read about the prestigious honour bestowed last night on this Lunenfeld Senior Investigator and Mary Janigan Research Chair in Molecular Cancer Therapeutics. Another great research success story centres on the announcement of $22 million in funding from the Ministry of Research and Innovation for the Lunenfeld research teams of Drs. Andras Nagy, Tony Pawson and Colin McKerlie. In celebration of Leave a Legacy Month, Mount Sinai psychiatrist Dr. Virginia Wesson discusses her decision to take an extra step in her support of the Hospital. You can still buy tickets to one of the season’s most glittering events, the Auxiliary Gala on May 25, to see Lionel Richie and support technological advancements at Mount Sinai. Mount Sinai is up and running – and walking! – for September’s Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon 2010; registration and fundraising information is here.
