The Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center opened in July 2017. This state-of-the-art facility consists of the Suzanne and Walter Scott Research Tower, where researchers have received more than $185 million in grant funding; the C.L. Werner Cancer Hospital, an 108-bed inpatient treatment center and a multidisciplinary outpatient center which includes clinics, radiation oncology, surgery, radiology, a 24/7 treatment center and lab. Located in Omaha, Nebraska, it is the only NCI-designated cancer center and NCCN Member Institution in the state and treats more than 60,000 patients each year.
