The Cornell Medical College was founded on April 14, 1898, with an endowment by Col. Oliver H. Payne. The college was established in New York City because Ithaca, where the Cornell main campus is located, was deemed too small to offer adequate clinical training opportunities. James Ewing was the first professor of clinical pathology at the school, and for a while the only full-time professor.[6][7][8]

20th century

[edit]

The college founded the medical fraternity, Phi Delta Epsilon, on October 13, 1904.[9]

A branch of the medical school operated in Stimson Hall on the main campus. The two-year Ithaca course paralleled the first two years of the New York school. The Ithaca location closed in 1938 due to declining enrollment.

The school became affiliated with New York Hospital, now NewYork–Presbyterian Hospital, in 1913.[1] The institutions opened a joint hospital-educational campus in Yorkville in 1932.[1]

In 1927, William Payne Whitney's $27 million donation led to the building of the Payne Whitney Psychiatric Clinic, which became the name for Cornell's large psychiatric effort. Its Training School for Nurses became affiliated with the university in 1942, operating as the Cornell Nursing School until it closed in 1979.[10]

In 1936, the Swiss professor and psychiatrist Oskar Diethelm[11] contributed a collection of more than 10,000 titles related to the history of psychiatry, helping to build up the Oskar Diethelm Historical Library.[12] [13]

The Cornell University Medical College was renamed the "Joan and Sanford I. Weill Medical College of Cornell University" after then-Citigroup chairman Sanford I. Weill pledged a $100 million donation to Cornell University for its biomedical research in 1998.[5]

21st century

[edit]

In 2015, the school was renamed Weill Cornell Medicine.[14]

On September 16, 2019, Augustine M.K. Choi announced Weill Cornell Medicine would make the cost of attendance free for all students who qualify for financial aid, made possible by a $160 million gift from The Starr Foundation, directed by Weill Cornell Medicine overseer Maurice R. Greenberg, in partnership with gifts from Joan and Board of Overseers Chairman Emeritus Sanford I. Weill.[15]

In March 2024, Augustine M.K. Choi, professor and former Dean of Weill Cornell Medicine, was accused of altering data for two decades in his research on animals.[16]

Payne, a philanthropist and executive, to establish a under 's auspices in with a strong emphasis on clinical education. This initiative arose from a group of prominent physicians, including Dr. Henry P. Loomis and Dr. Lewis A. Stimson, who sought to create an institution prioritizing rigorous scientific training and hands-on medical practice amid the rapid and medical advancements of the late . The school's establishment followed a dispute with , leading to the of its medical faculty and students to form this new entity dedicated to advancing in a major clinical hub. Initially located in temporary facilities at the Loomis Laboratory on East 26th Street in , near , the college opened its doors on October 4, 1898, admitting an inaugural class that included over 200 students, many transferred from predecessor institutions, with a notable proportion of women at a time when coeducation was rare in American medical schools. From the outset, the curriculum integrated basic sciences with practical training, utilizing nearby hospitals for clinical exposure; students began working on wards at by 1906, laying the groundwork for immersive . The college also used New York Hospital as a facility to enhance practical instruction in patient care. In 1900, a permanent building opened on First Avenue between 27th and 28th Streets, funded in part by an additional $1.5 million from Payne for equipment and construction, opposite to facilitate direct access to clinical resources. Key early milestones included the development of dedicated basic science laboratories and the graduation of the first class in 1902, consisting of 67 students, including 12 women, marking the completion of the four-year program under Dean William M.

This follows a two-year foundation for high school graduates, forming a cohesive six-year pathway leading to the degree, with additional emphasis on prevalent Middle Eastern health challenges such as , , and genetic disorders through region-specific research integration. The program maintains rigorous admission standards equivalent to the New York campus, fostering a diverse student body from over 30 countries. WCM-Q's campus in Doha spans approximately 335,000 square feet and includes advanced facilities such as lecture halls, over 34,000 square feet of teaching laboratories, a clinical skills center with 12 simulation exam rooms for hands-on training, and a comprehensive sciences library. As of 2023-2024, total enrollment stands at 345 students, including 207 in the medical curriculum, 117 in studies, and 21 in the foundation program, with the Class of 2027 comprising 47 students. Key achievements include a 93% residency match rate for the Class of 2025 applying to U.S. programs—far exceeding the 59% average for international medical graduates—and full accreditation for six years from the Association for Evaluation and Accreditation of Medical Education in 2022. In research, WCM-Q has advanced regional genomics through initiatives like the Qatar Genome Program, which has sequenced over 35,000 Qatari genomes as of 2024 to identify population-specific variants for precision medicine, supported by extramural funding from the Qatar National Research Fund since 2009 and substantial investments from the Qatar government via the Qatar Foundation. Since 2010, faculty and students have published over 1,840 papers, with core facilities like the Genomics Lab enabling studies on hereditary disorders and metabolic diseases tailored to the Middle East. Funding for Weill Cornell Medicine-Qatar is primarily provided by the Qatar Foundation. According to data reported to the U.S. Department of Education under Section 117 of the Higher Education Act, Qatar has been Cornell University's largest foreign donor, contributing approximately $2.29 billion in gifts and contracts, primarily to support operations at Weill Cornell Medicine-Qatar. Budgeted funding for WCM-Q has averaged approximately $156 million annually from 2012 to 2025, totaling around $2.2 billion, with virtually all such funding used for operations in Doha. In 2019, Cornell identified and corrected underreporting of over $1 billion in Qatar Foundation funds for WCM-Q operations since 2012, along with approximately $150 million in other foreign gifts and contracts, by filing an amended report with the Department of Education and implementing enhanced compliance measures. In March 2024, the U.S. House Ways and Means Committee sent a letter to Cornell inquiring about foreign funding from 2019 onward, as part of a broader investigation into university responses to campus antisemitism, though the inquiry was not specific to Qatar or any particular foreign influence.

Global Health Initiatives

Weill Cornell Medicine's global health initiatives, coordinated primarily through the Center for Global Health, emphasize international collaborations to address health disparities in resource-limited settings via research, education, and clinical training. Established to foster bidirectional exchanges, these efforts involve faculty, residents, and students participating in programs that build capacity in low-income countries, focusing on infectious diseases, , and chronic conditions. A cornerstone for students is the elective Curriculum, launched in 2009, which integrates didactic modules, clinical preceptorships, mentorship, and opportunities for international electives to equip medical students with skills for addressing global health inequities. Participants can undertake rotations at partner sites in , , , , and , typically lasting 8 weeks between academic years, to gain hands-on experience in resource-poor environments. Complementing this, the Weill Cornell Research Fellowship offers a three-year postdoctoral program for residents, emphasizing fieldwork and research in international settings to train clinician-scientists. The Training Program, including the Medical Research Track, incorporates international rotations in , , and to support advanced training in research. Key partnerships underscore these initiatives, such as the long-standing collaboration with GHESKIO in since 1982, which provides care, trains local medical personnel and community leaders, and conducts operational research on infectious diseases. In , a with Byramjee Jeejeebhoy Medical College in , established in 2009, focuses on management, , and , incorporating telemedicine for remote consultations and training programs that serve a population of over 7 million, with affiliated hospitals handling approximately 500,000 outpatients annually. Efforts in involve capacity-building for healthcare delivery, while additional sites in (via Weill Bugando University) and (with since 1964) support training in and infectious disease control, including telemedicine applications for diagnostics. The with Weill Bugando School of Medicine, established in 2003, has graduated over 2,220 MDs as of 2025, significantly boosting and healthcare delivery in . Weill Cornell Medicine has responded to global crises through targeted involvement, including contributions to the 2014 Ebola outbreak via expert consultations and mobilization advocacy, as highlighted by Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases , who emphasized the need for international coordination during a Weill Cornell forum. For the from 2020 to 2025, the institution led global research efforts, including multicenter studies on incidence and immunological surveillance, while supporting international vaccination access and contributing to a multinational consensus on ending emergencies. Collaborations with major organizations amplify these responses, particularly on infectious diseases; partnerships with the (via the ) facilitate training and research in epidemiology, while the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has funded multiple projects, including $6.8 million in 2023 for drug development and earlier grants for prevention in and antimicrobial resistance mapping across 54 cities. In 2025, Weill Cornell advocates integrated children's health into global climate adaptation strategies, urging policymakers to prioritize pediatric vulnerabilities in climate goals through initiatives like targeted metrics for child-focused interventions. These initiatives have trained over 600 physician-scientists and healthcare professionals through the partnership alone since 1964, contributing to broader impacts in clinical capacity and research output in partner countries.
