Medical Center Archives of New York-Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center Web Archive

Collected by: Cornell University Library

Archived since: Mar, 2012

Description:

Located in New York City, The Medical Center Archives is the repository for the NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital (NYPH), the Weill Medical College of Cornell University, the Weill Graduate School of Medical Sciences of Cornell University, and Weill Cornell Medical College in Qatar. The Archives also holds the records for predecessor institutions of the Medical Center, as well as several hospitals that merged or affiliated with NYPH, and the records of the Cornell University-New York Hospital School of Nursing. In addition to institutional records, the Archives holds approximately 150 collections of papers and manuscripts from noted individuals associated with the institutions of the medical center. The collections comprise nearly 7,000 linear feet of papers, records, and images dating from 1771 to the present.

Title: Institute for Precision Medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College

URL: http://ipm.weill.cornell.edu/

Description: "The Institute for Precision Medicine at Weill Cornell Medical College and NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital is a translational research hub, which opened under the direction of renowned pathologist and prostate cancer expert Dr. Mark Rubin in 2013. The IPM team includes clinicians, basic scientists, pathologists, molecular biologists, and computational biologists. These physician-scientists are directing their collective expertise and wealth of knowledge to pinpoint the molecular underpinnings of disease and spur the discovery of novel therapies." -- from the website, 6/12/2015

Title: Englander Institute for Precision Medicine. Weill Cornell Medicine College

URL: https://eipm.weill.cornell.edu/

Description: "Founded in 2015, the Englander Institute’s primary mission is to uncover the molecular roots of disease using genomic sequencing, informatics, and other technologies. This information is then used to personalize disease treatment and prevention. To achieve this, computational biologists first analyze tumor sequencing data and summarize the key clinical and genetic findings. Then, a team of interdisciplinary specialists, including pathologists, molecular biologists, oncologists and basic scientists use these findings to determine the best treatment options for each patient. Precision medicine targeted individualized care is tailored to each patient based on his or her specific genetic profile and medical history. Unlike the traditional one-size-fits-all medicine, practitioners of precision medicine use genomic sequencing tools to interrogate a patient’s entire genome to locate the specific genetic alterations that have given rise to and are driving his or her tumor. With this information, they can identify small molecule drugs, monoclonal antibodies, vaccines, and other therapies that are most precisely targeted and are therefore most effective and have the fewest side effects."

Title: Department of Medicine Weill Cornell Medical College

URL: https://medicine.weill.cornell.edu/

Description: "As the Sanford I. Weill Chair of the Weill Department of Medicine, I look forward to the extraordinary journey ahead with the utmost enthusiasm. We are indebted to those pioneering physicians and scientists who drove the major discoveries over the past century, but we cannot rest on their laurels. Today's world of translational research offers undiscovered vistas to explore that will open the door to life-saving therapies. An ever-expanding universe of biomedical sciences, genomics, and technological tools will provide the key."
