Emory University has received $261.5 million from the Robert W. Woodruff Foundation to fund expansion and renovation of its healthcare and research operations. A $240-million modernization of the outpatient care facilities at the Woodruff Health Sciences Center will enable the implementation of a patient-centered treatment model supported by translational research. The Woodruff Health Sciences Center Administration Building will benefit from a $9-million renovation. A new Emory Clinic complex will also be constructed across from the existing university hospital, housing patient, research, and office space. Additionally, Emory is planning to invest over $2 billion in academic and campus improvements.
