|}}Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University is a nonprofit cancer research and patient care center based in Atlanta, Georgia. Winship Cancer Institute is the only National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center in Georgia.[1]

History

The Robert Winship Clinic was established in 1937 through a gift to Emory of $50,000 from Coca-Cola CEO Robert W. Woodruff, who named the center after his maternal grandfather, Robert Winship, in honor of his mother, Emily Winship, who died from breast cancer. Woodruff’s vision was to create a center in Georgia that focuses on research, education and patient care.[2] The Robert W. Woodruff Foundation, Inc. has continued to support Emory in achieving this vision, and in 2003 Emory dedicated the {{convert|275000|sqft|m2}} Winship Cancer Institute building, constructed with funds from the Robert W. Woodruff Foundation, Inc.[3]
