Funding for University of Missouri reactor makes progress
(AP) — A state representative says she'll attempt to find $10 million for new training and classroom space at University of Missouri's research reactor.
The Columbia Daily Tribune (http://bit.ly/21COgpm ) reports that Republican state Rep. Donna Lichtenegger arranged for six House members to tour the reactor and hear a pitch from reactor officials Monday.
The reactor supplies elements that reduce bone cancer pain and treat inoperable liver cancer.
