The University of Kentucky Markey Cancer Center anticipates word this spring about another national designation. It could prove beneficial in supporting cancer-fighting research.
The Markey Cancer Center attained a National Cancer Institute rating a decade ago. Officials at the multi-faceted cancer program in Lexington hope to hear in a month or so if they’ve achieved comprehensive status. Markey Director Dr. Mark Evers said the next level of recognition would likely carry grant funding benefits.
