DOROTHY LICHTENSTEIN Obituary

LICHTENSTEIN--Dorothy. The New York Stem Cell Foundation mourns the loss of Dorothy Lichtenstein, beloved friend, founding Leadership Council member, and visionary supporter of our work to cure disease. Dorothy was a passionate champion of stem cell research, and her generosity to NYSCF was legendary. One of her many gifts underwrote a high-tech system for cell imaging, which our scientists named "The Dorothy" in gratitude. We will remember her with deep affection for all she did to both enable our cutting edge science and raise our spirits. Jennifer Raab, President, Dr. Roy Geronemus, Chair, Paul Goldberger and the NYSCF Board, and staff
