After Sunday services on January 21st, 2024 in the Cathedral refectory, a ground breaking presentation on cancer prevention took place. The presentation was given by, and organized by the Mount Sinai Medical Center, a cathedral neighbor. The presentation and lecture took place in the cathedral refectory hall of St Nicholas Patriarchal Cathedral.
This important event was a lecture on the prevention of cancer, in particular lung cancer. These lecture courses that the hospital prepares are specifically designed and tailored for, national communities existing in New York City. The choice of presentation topics is based on statistical data on morbidity in a particular community.
