New Health and Science Research Building at Saint Louis University
SLU's Research Building project in midtown St. Louis will be near the Health Sciences Center. The building will house both student and faculty researchers who have the potential to transform our world through cutting edge advances in science and medicine.

Expected to be completed in the summer of 2007, new research building will have dedicated laboratory space, leading-edge technology and an entrepreneurial environment. It will also be a powerful recruitment tool for continuing to attract world-class faculty.
