The UBC Faculty of Medicine explores new ways of thinking to achieve the extraordinary. Since 1950, we have created models of excellence in education and research to serve the unique needs of our province and improve the health of patients, families and communities, at home and around the world.
Our vision is to transform health for everyone—regardless of age, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, location, socioeconomic means or ability. Across British Columbia, we are meeting people within their communities to better understand and respond to their specific health needs. We are accelerating research to transform medicine through scientific discovery and bring lifesaving treatments to patients and families sooner. And we are working with the next generation of health professionals and scientists to solve the world’s evolving health challenges, while empowering them to lead with curiosity, conviction and empathy.
Your support of the UBC Faculty of Medicine is a gift for all British Columbians. Through your generosity, you are enabling our researchers to collaborate in pursuit of innovative solutions to prevent and treat disease, and promote wellbeing and healthy aging. You are also encouraging the next generation of doctors, health professionals and scientists to become the passionate leaders and innovators of tomorrow.
We invite you to support us as we continue to work differently—in extraordinary new ways.
Translational medicine and bio-innovation are enabling UBC to cut the delivery time for life-saving medical innovations in half. But we need your support to raise an initial $50 million to accelerate this vital vision for the next five years.
