Ali Jassim Family Cancer Research Fund

Watch this video of the dedication of the Ali Jassim Family Cancer Research Suite at UCLA.

Inspired by the work being done at the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive 癌症中心, Ali Jassim and his family have taken on one of medicine's greatest challenges — eradicating cancer.

The Ali Jassim Family Cancer Research Fund at the 癌症中心 promotes patient-centered innovation in discovery science and cancer care, providing the tools needed to advance some of the most promising work in the field. The $10 million gift to establish the Fund has built the Ali Jassim Family Cancer Research Suite as well as created the Ali Jassim Family Cancer Research Program.

"I believe in giving back to society and making a difference in the world, and it gives my family and me great pleasure to contribute to UCLA's premier cancer program,贾西姆说. "The fight against cancer begins with research, and research cannot continue without funding."
