Frankel Innovation Initiative

The Frankel Innovation Initiative is a $20 million fund supporting the research and development of life-saving therapies at Michigan Medicine. Made possible by a generous donation from the Maxine and Stuart Frankel Foundation, the program is established to advance innovative research by U-M faculty, and their collaborators inside and outside U-M, that has the potential for rapid clinical application and groundbreaking impact. FFMI is administering the fund. Learn more.
