The Feinstein Institutes acquired assets from the closing of the Picower Institute for Medical Research, founded in 1991 by Anthony Cerami and funded by Jeffry Picower. In 2001 the institute's funding was withdrawn and it closed; in 2002 it was acquired by The Institute for Medical Research at North Shore-LIJ. In 2005 board member Leonard Feinstein, co-founder of Bed Bath & Beyond, made a $25 million gift that led to its renaming The Feinstein Institute for Medical Research. In 2017, Feinstein and his wife, Susan, committed another $25 million.
