A gift of $1,000,000 has been made by Henry Kalman, a prominent businessman and Jewish leader, to the Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University, for the establishment of an institute for cancer research.
The new institute, which will be named for Mr. Kalman, will occupy a floor in a new health research center now being completed on the campus. Mr. Kalman, who is a founder and member of the Board of Overseers of the Einstein College, is also a member of the board of trustees of the Jewish Child Care Association and the Jewish Memorial Hospital.
