St. Jude is unlike any other pediatric treatment and
research facility. Discoveries made here have completely
changed how the world treats children with cancer and
other catastrophic diseases. With research and patient care
under one roof, St. Jude is where some of today's most
gifted researchers are able to do science more quickly.
St. Jude researchers are published and cited more often in
high impact publications than any other private pediatric
oncology research institution in America. St. Jude is a place
where many doctors send some of their sickest patients
and toughest cases. A place where cutting-edge research
and revolutionary discoveries happen every day. They have
built America's second-largest health-care charity so the
science never stops.
