Dr. Joan Massagué, Director of the Sloan Kettering Institute (SKI) and Chief Scientific Officer for Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK), is known for his research in cancer biology. A lesser known place where Dr. Massagué is in his element outside of a research lab: among fellow rockhounds enchanted by the beauty of crystals. At its most expansive, Dr. Massagué’s collection numbered over 1,000 specimens. Today, it’s down to a trim 400 — most of them measuring just a few inches. These he keeps on display at his home in glass-fronted cabinets. Both his work as a biologist and as a rock hunter involve painstaking detective work. “It requires patience,” Dr. Massagué says. “There’s no right or wrong. There is no one style. Just like with the SKI, I’m interested in letting the component parts help each other — so that the whole becomes more than the sum of the parts.” Read more about Dr. Massagué: https://bit.ly/4eHHdmz
