Hammersmith Hospital will begin construction in April of 2009 on a £100 million cardiovascular research facility in London. The three-story translational research facility will be housed in a larger six-story building that will include a genomics center and an imaging laboratory. The project is part of the Wellcome Trust Clinical Research Facility and Academic Health Sciences Centre, the first academic medical center in the United Kingdom. The 13,000-sm project is slated for completion in 2011.
