At Closer to Cure Foundation, we believe that the evolutionary solutions nature has been developing for millions of years can be used to improve human life.  

We believe that evolutionary biology — the convergence of nature and technology — holds the key to curing cancer and a wide range of inflammatory and other diseases. 

We believe that if we can learn why humans develop diseases that other species avoid, nature’s solutions can be applied to find a cure.

Closer to Cure Foundation is dedicated to funding researchers like Dr. Joshua Schiffman and Dr. Trudy Oliver. These breakthrough scientists are developing evolution-inspired medicines to help patients in Park City, throughout Utah, across the nation, and all over the world. 

Your donation will help our program identify, cultivate, and support future grant recipients. Together, we can revolutionize the treatment of cancer, a wide range of inflammatory and other diseases, and ultimately, improve patient lives.
