Baptist Health South Florida says it will collaborate with New York-based Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center for the new $400-million Miami Cancer Institute scheduled to open later this year, the Miami Herald reports.

The partnership will give Baptist Health South Florida patients access to Sloan Kettering’s clinical trials and enhanced medical care, according to the Herald.

Originally founded in December 2006 as an independent grassroots publication dedicated to coverage of health issues in Florida, Health News Florida was acquired by WUSF Public Media in September 2012.
