A celebration honoring Sandy and John Black’s $25 million gift to the Cancer Center and Research Institute at the University of Mississippi Medical Center was held in the home of Pryor and Robert Lampton.
The gift, the single largest gift in University of Mississippi Medical Center history, is in support of the UMMC Cancer Center and Research Institute’s campaign to build a new facility to advance world-class patient care and research. A new, five-story, 250,000 plus square foot building will hold state-of-the-art facilities designed to deliver cutting-edge care and foster groundbreaking research, which includes clinical trials.
The new facility is designed to provide a welcoming, interdisciplinary space that enhances patient and family care, improves access and offers a seamless health care experience.
