Pat & Randy Davis Donate $75K Founding Gift to Establish the Merkel Cell Carcinoma Collaborative (MC3) Institute
“In 2020, Pat was diagnosed with MCC. After researching for what seemed like forever, we were very fortunate to learn of Dr. Paul Nghiem's lab. We remember the relief we felt as we realized we had world experts and a terrific team to help us navigate the steps for treatment of MCC. We are so grateful for the support and guidance we received.
When we learned about the plans to expand the work of the lab by opening a collaboration center, the MC3, we jumped at the chance to help. The MC3, with over 10 institutions and 50 researchers cooperating in world class research, will allow many more people to experience the wonderful support we received over four years ago with Dr. Nghiem's lab.
We look forward to hearing more stories of improved treatments and successful collaborations to combat MCC. We are honored to be a small part of this effort.” —Pat & Randy Davis
