Our Heartfelt Gratitude

Welcome to the 2023 issue of Momentum, our annual online publication featuring stories of generosity and impact at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus. As we compile these stories each year, we reflect on the vital role that philanthropy plays in our work to save and improve lives.

The largest academic health sciences campus in the Rocky Mountain region, CU Anschutz was built to serve as a destination for the highest-quality care, the latest research and innovation, and rigorous health sciences education. In each area of our mission, it is our dedicated community of supporters that makes what we do possible. Thank you.

With this publication, we highlight some of the many ways that you make a difference. You will find stories on a host of topics in this year's issue:

• A new center of excellence for esophageal cancer treatment  
• The newly created Gates Institute for innovations in regenerative, cell and gene therapies  
• Solving healthcare disparities through research and policy change  
• A new era of leadership at the Colorado School of Public Health  
• Our talented endowed chair faculty  
• Mental health initiatives across campus  

We hope these stories leave you with a sense of pride in what we have accomplished together and excitement for what lies ahead.
