Murren was appointed in 2009 by Congress to serve on the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission (FCIC), a 10-member Federal commission established to examine the domestic and global cause of the financial crisis. The commission, to which subpoena powers were granted, examined and held hearings on more than 20 specific areas of inquiry, including the role of fraud and abuse in the financial sector; state and federal regulatory enforcement; tax treatment of financial products; lending practices and securitization; and corporate governance and executive compensation. The commission reported its finding in January 2011. The published book "The Financial Crisis Inquiry Report" was listed on the New York Times bestseller list and was critically acclaimed.

After retiring from Wall Street, in 2002 and seeing the extreme need for quality medical care in the State of Nevada, she and her husband co-founded the first non-profit cancer research and treatment center in Las Vegas, the Nevada Cancer Institute (NVCI) where she served as Chairman and CEO until 2009. The 140,000 square foot flagship facility was constructed between 2002 and 2005 when it opened to patients and researchers with fully integrated wet and dry laboratories, imaging, radiation and clinical oncology practices and patient support services. The NVCI carried out the first ever first-in-man clinical trials in the state of Nevada as well as seminal clinical trials making previously unavailable early-stage clinical trial therapies available to the over 15,000 patients served. The research center-clinic flagship facility was acquired by the University of California San Diego Health Systems in January 2012 and subsequently the NVCI Foundation was then merged into Roseman University in December 2013 after reorganization. Through a partnership with the Cure4TheKids Foundation, nearly 100 pediatric cancer patients are seen daily, and cumulatively, over 50,000 patients have been treated regardless of their ability to pay. Cure4TheKids Foundation also conducts interventional and observational research in genetics, neuron psychology, and oncology. [1]
