Funding The Future

FUNDING INNOVATIVE RESEARCH

Lynn Sage Breast Cancer Foundation believes ambitious research is the key to changing the trajectory of breast cancer.

The Lynn Sage Scholars are talented, young researchers, investigating potentially groundbreaking theories. Scholars are awarded $200,000 over two years to pursue a novel breast cancer project. The goal is to leverage their results into larger, governmental support and translate their theory into better treatment. Since 2007, the Lynn Sage Scholars program has driven additional funding worth six times the initial investment.
