U54 Partnership for the Advancement of Cancer Research

About the Partnership of New Mexico State University with
Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center

New Mexico State University (NMSU; Las Cruces, NM) and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (FHCRC; Seattle, WA)
was awarded a $10 million National Cancer Institute grant to support a partnership between these two institutions. The partnership's
major objective is to establish cancer research at NMSU and to increase the number of minorities involved in cancer research.
