This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) under the Congressionally-Identified Projects program (CFDA 11.617) provides $4,000,000 to the University of Missouri System to acquire a specialized hot cell for the production of Lutetium-177 (Lu-177). Lu-177 is a radioisotope used in breakthrough cancer treatments, and the University of Missouri Research Reactor (MURR) is currently the sole supplier of Lu-177 in North America.

The goal of this project is to expand critical cancer-fighting research and medical isotope production, especially for Lu-177. The hot cell acquisition will help maintain the supply of this important isotope, which is in high demand globally for the diagnosis and treatment of various cancers. The award has a performance period from September 1, 2024 to February 28, 2026. The University of Missouri System will not be subawardingfunds under this grant.
