The Breast Cancer Research Foundation is a New York City–based nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing breast cancer science. It supports research worldwide across tumor biology, genetics, prevention, treatment, metastasis, and survivorship. Founded in 1993 by Evelyn H. Lauder, BCRF operates a streamlined grants program that aims to attract top scientific minds and provide the resources they need to pursue innovative ideas. Its primary beneficiaries are researchers and clinicians working on breast cancer, with the organization positioned within the research services landscape. In May 2026, BCRF announced the launch of two online resources—About Breast Cancer and a Glossary—designed to provide expert-verified information to patients, caregivers, and the public.
