The University of Minnesota broke ground on a state-of-the-art cancer and cardiovascular research building – the final landmark within the Biomedical Discovery District – on May 11, 2011.

The building will act as the gateway to the U of M’s Biomedical Discovery District (BDD) – the result of a $292 million funding program approved by the state of Minnesota in 2008. When complete in spring 2013, the cancer/cardio research building will bring top U of M researchers together across disciplines to discover the next wave of cancer and cardiovascular treatments and therapies.
