MIAMI-Baptist Health South Florida announced plans on Wednesday to build a new $400-million cancer treatment and research facility at its main campus here.
The non-profit hospital network says that construction on the four-story, 370,000-square-foot building that will be operated as The Miami Cancer Institute will begin in July and will open in 2016, according to the Miami Herald.
The facility will combine clinical treatment with a cancer research laboratory. The facility, when operational, will be South Florida's first proton therapy facility.
The center also will perform bone marrow transplants, infusion chemotherapy and radiation therapies, as well as robotic surgery. See story in the Miami Herald.
