Indiana University is establishing a new center focused on brain cancer and neuro-oncology research.
The Jeff Schwarz Center for Neuro-Oncology Research was created with a ten-million-dollar gift from the Schwarz family, honoring IU alumnus Jeff Schwarz, who died from glioblastoma in 2023.
The IU School of Medicine is contributing another five million dollars.
The center will support research, recruit specialists and work toward developing better treatments for brain cancer patients.

I fought for that…I fought for my uncle’s life to be longer and healthier…I wanted him to get to see his grandkids and enjoy his golden years…I was incredibly upset when he passed away…I fought for him to have a healthy body…a healthy weight…a healthy relationship with food…and healthy surroundings…I knew he had a brain tumor that was inoperable and he was receiving expensive injections to keep it at bay in growth…I was supportive of the medical intervention he was blessed to have and desperately tried to address his physical health surrounding the tumor while studying for a cure… Not to harm him…or use him as a guinea pig because that’s inhumane…
