MORE THAN HALF OF THE ANNUAL FUNDING DISTRIBUTED BY THE WOODRUFF FUND WAS DESIGNATED TO SUPPORT THE PROGRAMS AND FACILITIES OF THE WINSHIP CANCER INSTITUTE AT EMORY UNIVERSITY.

WOODRUFF FUND GRANTS WERE USED TO RECRUIT AND RETAIN FACULTY FOR DUAL APPOINTMENTS AT EMORY'S MEDICAL SCHOOL AND THE WINSHIP CANCER INSTITUTE AND TO FUND SIGNIFICANT FACULTY RESEARCH PROJECTS IN CANCER PREVENTION, DETECTION AND TREATMENT. MORE THAN ONE-THIRD OF THE FUNDS DEDICATED TO SUPPORT PROGRAMS ARE USED TO SUPPORT WINSHIP'S CLINICAL TRIALS PROGRAM. OTHER SIGNIFICANT ALLOCATIONS OF PROGRAM FUNDS WERE MADE FOR INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND DATA MANAGEMENT, SUPPORT OF WINSHIP'S BIOSTATISTICS AND BIOINFORMATICS PROGRAMS, AND FOR SUPPORTING WINSHIP'S ADMINISTRATION, SHARED RESOURCES, AND ITS NCI CANCER CENTER SUPPORT GRANT. ALMOST HALF OF THE DISTRIBUTIONS TO WINSHIP ARE ALLOCATED TO PAY FOR FACILITIES.
