The Rivkin Center for Ovarian Cancer Research is a nonprofit organization focused on advancing ovarian cancer research through seed funding and collaborative efforts with scientists and physicians worldwide. Based in Seattle, Washington, the center operates as an independent 501(c)(3) entity founded in 1996 to honor Marsha Rivkin and to extend the work of the Swedish Medical Center and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in advancing ovarian cancer science. Its activities include supporting innovative pilot studies, scholar grants for early-career researchers, early detection screening initiatives, and organizing research symposia that attract participants from national and international communities. The center aims to fill gaps in research exploration by funding new directions in ovarian cancer research and by fostering education and collaboration within the field. In recent years, it has formalized partnerships to broaden education, support, and research efforts within the ovarian and gynecologic cancer community.
