UW Madison Creates Cancer Research Facility

Published 6/23/2004

The University of Wisconsin-Madison is planning to construct a new breast cancer research institute funded by a $7-million grant from the National Institutes of Health. Designed to allow investigators to better collaborate on research findings, the facility will feature state-of-the-art laboratories and additional research space. The University of Wisconsin was awarded a similar grant last year for the creation of a research institute on prostate cancer. The institutes will be constructed on different floors of the University’s Comprehensive Cancer Center/Interdisciplinary Research Complex.
