Helping to advance revolutionary research in prostate cancer and delivery of precision treatments to U.S. Veterans, the John and Daria Barry Foundation has donated $2.5 million to the Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) to establish the John and Daria Barry Precision Oncology Center of Excellence at the Manhattan Campus of the VA NY Harbor Healthcare System (VANYHHS).
The Barry Center of Excellence will address the clinical needs of Veterans currently battling prostate cancer in the New York metropolitan area and beyond. The Barry Center of Excellence will also serve as a precision oncology hub in the PCF’s preeminent network of centers executing the ambitious mission of improving the care of U.S. Veterans with prostate cancer. Due to the cancer-causing mutations in prostate cancer that may be found in different types of cancer, this investment will have implications for many other forms of life-threatening cancer.
Notable attendees included: Dr. Jonathan Simons, John F. Barry III, Daria Barry, Deborah Scher, Rebecca Levine, Martina Parauda, Dr. Stacy Loeb, Daniel Becker, David Wise, James Barry, Matt Barry, Morgan Barry, Elizabeth Barry Swanson, Patrick C. Malloy, Cynthia Caroselli and Sergeant Constance Campbell.
