Dr. Miodrag Kukrika and the late Ewa Maria Kukrika
Some of the Foundation’s grants and awards are provided through funds from individuals and family foundations. In 2008, the Ewa Maria Kukrika Fund for Pancreatic Cancer Research supported a Young Investigator Award in the area of pancreatic cancer. This fund was established by Dr. Miodrag Kukrika in honor of his wife who passed away in 2004. The recipient, Benjamin L. Musher, MD, received $50,000 for his project Combined Immunotherapy Targeting Mutated K-Ras in Adenocarcinoma of the Pancreas.
