In addition, two University of Nebraska-Lincoln scientists also received $50,000 each in grants.<\/p>\n<p>The Nebraska Legislature created the program in 1981 by implementing a one cent tax on each pack of cigarettes sold in the state. In 1993, the tax was increased by an additional two cents per pack.<\/p>\n<p>The revenue goes to the Eppley Institute for Research in Cancer and Allied Diseases at UNMC, and the Cancer Registry at DHSS and other cancer research programs. Researchers at the University of Nebraska and Creighton University compete annually for the funds.<\/p>\n<p>The researchers listed below received funding for the following projects:<\/p>\n<p><b>UNMC<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Tadayoshi Bessho, Ph.D., Eppley Institute for Research in Cancer and Allied Diseases, &#8220;MUC1-induced Imbalance in DSB Repair as a Therapeutic Target in Pancreatic Cancer&#8221;;\n<li>Kishore Challagundla, Ph.D., Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, &#8220;Exosomic PD-L1 protein and therapy resistance in neuroblastoma&#8221;;\n<li>Pi-Wan Cheng, Ph.D., Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, &#8220;Altered O-glycans on prostate-specific antigen in advanced prostate cancer&#8221;;\n<li>Sarah Holstein, M.D., Ph.D., Department of Internal Medicine, &#8220;Geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase inhibitor therapy for multiple myeloma&#8221;;\n<li>R.
