The Lynn Sage Foundation, established by the family of Lynn Sage, is committed to the discovery of a cure for breast cancer. To achieve this goal, the Foundation has partnered with the Robert H. Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center of Northwestern University, a nationally recognized leader in breast cancer care, education and research. The Cancer Center, under the direction of Dr. Steven T. Rosen and co-led by renowned investigators Drs. Charles Clevenger and Seema Kham, is the only National Cancer Institute-designated "Comprehensive" Cancer Center in the State of Illinois. The Cancer Center’s solid, well-established program in breast cancer research is fortified by a new, state-of-the-art, 15,000-square-foot research facility that was opened in the spring of 2005.
