Each year, 24-40 players golf from dawn til dusk - sometimes as many as 100 holes, each raising money to fund a repurposing clinical trial. In support of this amazing effort, we secure a private course, and provide our players with refreshments, carts, prizes, and encouragement.
This year, we're supporting Dr. Paul Swiecicki's project:
Repurposing Old Drugs as New Therapies for Metastatic Thyroid Cancer.

Laura Kleiman, PhD, has no trouble seeking her professional passion. She pursues it everywhere – at work, at home, even in the car.
