Officials with the Regional Research Institute hope they don't have to scale back their plans for a new building on the hospital grounds. The proposed 25 million dollar facility would house a new cyclotron that would produce medical isotopes. Institute chair, Keith Jobbitt says federal funding for the project may not come through. He says they may instead have to use an existing building like the Health Sciences Centre or the Munro Street facility. Jobbitt says they will continue to pursue the funding from the feds.
