Continuing

in cancer care and research, Governor James E. McGreevey formally
opened the state’s first and only multidisciplinary cancer
center in southern New Jersey recently.

the Cancer Institute of New Jersey, “CINJ at Cooper” will be
part of the elite group of institutions designated as Comprehensive
Cancer Centers by The National Cancer Institute (NCI). It will
bring state-of-the-art comprehensive cancer treatment to the
southern New Jersey region.
The
Governor was joined by officials from Cooper and CINJ, as well
as state and local dignitaries, including Assemblyman Louis
Greenwald, Commissioner Clifton R. Lacy, M.D., of the Department
of Health and Senior Services and Commissioner Susan Bass Levin
