The building supports important research leading to better treatments for cardiovascular disease, arthritis, and osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s disease, autism, addictions and more. The building’s fourth floor is a shelled space that will allow for future expansion as the research program expands allowing space for an additional 56 researchers.
The Comparative Medical Unit, known as the CMU, is a 20,400 SF addition to the already existing CMU which also included 8,000 SF of renovation. The new addition includes a vivarium, research areas, and support facilities.
