UNMC Chancellor Jeffrey P. Gold, M.D., will also participate, taking the airwaves between 2 and 3 p.m. Friday.

Most importantly, they’ll hear from patients who’ve benefited from the care, treatment and research provided at the med center.
NRG and med center staff members, as well as surprise guests, will be answering pledge calls in a call center at NRG Media headquarters in midtown Omaha.
