During this process, it was confirmed the project is on budget, not to exceed $323 million, and on schedule with building occupancy expected early 2017. <\/p>\n<p>With the budget and financing approved, the project is ready to move full steam ahead. <\/p>\n<p> &#8220;This is a big day for our organizations. It is important to recognize the significance of this project for the campus, community and region. The entirety of the cancer center project will take us to the next level in terms of both research and patient care,&#8221; said UNMC Chancellor Jeffrey P. Gold, M.D.<\/p>\n<p>The Fred &amp; Pamela Buffett Cancer Center will include three areas dedicated to cancer:  a 10-story, 98-laboratory research tower named the Suzanne and Walter Scott Cancer Research Tower; a 108-bed inpatient treatment center named the C.L. Werner Cancer Hospital; and a multidisciplinary outpatient center.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Budget, financing approvals latest step as center moves toward completion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":27,"featured_media":37436,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_relevanssi_hide_post":"","_relevanssi_hide_content":"","_relevanssi_pin_for_all":"","_relevanssi_pin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_unpin_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_keywords":"","_relevanssi_related_include_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_exclude_ids":"","_relevanssi_related_no_append":"","_relevanssi_related_not_related":"","_relevanssi_related_posts":"","_relevanssi_noindex_reason":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-46622","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","department-college-of-medicine","department-eppley-institute-for-cancer-research","department-fred-pamela-buffett-cancer-center","department-unmc-today-todays-headlines","author_override-mallory-car-unmc-public-relations"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Fred &amp;
