Lauren Hackett was named deputy director of administration of Albert Einstein Cancer Center and associate vice president of cancer medicine at Montefiore Medicine. 

Hackett, who is currently the chief operating officer at the Allen Institute, will assume these roles in August 2021.  

At AECC, Hackett will have oversight and authority over the administrative team and structure, running all aspects of its operations. A key part of her role is partnering with the senior leaders at AECC, Einstein, and Montefiore to align and implement strategic priorities across its cancer enterprise.

She also partnered with colleagues to integrate scientific strategy and planning efforts throughout administration and operations teams across the institute.
