Cornell University was founded with a groundbreaking principle for its time: to enroll students from all backgrounds who are free to pursue any academic field they chose – "...any person...any study". Our campuses and our society are stronger for having people with varying lived experiences, perspectives, and diversity of thought engage with, and learn from, each other. 

Across Weill Cornell Medicine, we curate programs that train and integrate people into the critical work we do to care for our patients, advance scientific research to address their problems, and teach future generation of physicians, scientists and educators. We are committed to providing culturally competent care, in which clinicians understand and are committed to serve diverse patient needs in every community where we work.
