Markey Collaboration

May, 2011
On May 5, the University of Kentucky Markey Cancer Center  formed an international partnership with Kailash Cancer Hospital at Muni Seva Ashram.  This international collaboration is a new milestone that will facilitate the exchange of educational, scientific, and clinical expertise in oncology.  Such an exchange is expected to provide a greatly enriching professional experience and a synergistic outcome at the participating institutions. Over the years, it will lead to new discoveries and approaches for prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cancer.  Thank you, Dr. Yogendra Shah for making this happen.
