Addario Lung Cancer Medical Institute

The Addario Lung Cancer Medical Institute (ALCMI) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to forwarding lung cancer research that can lead to new therapeutics, diagnostics, and a better understanding of lung cancer risk factors in families and in younger people, and resistance mechanisms. Made up of an international consortium of 25 of the world's premier oncology research institutions, ALCMI partners with the top minds from the most respected medical facilities, providing financial support and access to a team of experts and staff to assist in launching and managing investigator-initiated clinical trials.

The organization was founded in 2008 by lung cancer survivor Bonnie J. Addario, founder of the Bonnie J. Addario Lung Cancer Foundation, which later merged with Lung Cancer Alliance to form GO2 for Lung Cancer, and her husband Tony Addario.
