Continuing a family tradition that spans six decades, USC Trustee Jane Hoffman Popovich and her husband, J. Kristoffer Popovich – both San Marino natives – pledged $4 million to create the Jane and Kris Popovich Chair in Cancer Research at the USC Norris Comprehensive Cancer Center.
The couple’s gift is a new chapter of generosity and support in the family’s long history of giving to the university. Directed from the Hoffman Foundation, the gift will create an endowed faculty chair to advance cancer research on the center’s greatest priorities in basic and translational research.
“After 60 years of research, we’re still looking for cures to all cancers,” Kris Popovich said. “We hope this gift will spur progress toward a much-needed breakthrough.”
