The University of Notre Dame’s Harper Cancer Research Institute will hold an open house from 4 to 6:30 p.m. June 28 (Tuesday) in Harper Hall. The event is free and open to the public, and refreshments will be provided.

Attendees will have an opportunity to tour the institute’s labs and to learn about cancer research being done in the South Bend community.

An online auction for those who cannot attend the open house can be accessed at www.harpercancer.wordpress.com/.
