JEROLD B. KATZ ACADEMY OF TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH
A substantial commitment from the Jerold B. Katz Foundation established the Jerold B. Katz Academy of Translational Research, which aims to recruit and retain the world’s most promising transformational researchers in health care. According to Evan H. Katz, one of Jerold B. Katz’s sons and the president of the Jerold B. Katz Foundation, the gift is designed to continually seed innovation and facilitate the discovery of improved treatments and medications. A portion of this gift is intended to support the research efforts of eight investigators, of whom three have been announced.
