An elite dinner was the backdrop for a gathering of Denver’s most eloquent and handsome men, as the Men’s Event for the University of Colorado Cancer Center unfolded at Elway’s Cherry Creek on Monday night.
The University of Colorado Cancer Center at the Anschutz Medical Campus is Colorado’s only National Cancer Institute-designated comprehensive cancer center, a distinction recognizing its outstanding contributions to research, clinical trials, prevention and cancer control.
Ranked #12 in cancer care in US News & World Report’s review of more than 900 hospitals nationwide, the University of Colorado Cancer Center establishes and delivers the gold standard in cancer clinical guidelines, setting the bar for cancer treatment for oncologists nationwide. It is a consortium of more than 400 researchers and physicians at all three state universities and six institutions, all working toward one goal–to conquer cancer.
