Published 9/10/2008

The University of Southern California broke ground in September of 2008 on the $82.6 million Eli and Edythe Broad CIRM Center for Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Research in Los Angeles. Located on USC's Health Science Campus in Boyle Heights, the 81,537-gsf, five-story facility will provide 53,000-asf for basic and discovery stem cell research, preclinical research and preclinical development, and clinical research. Designed by Zimmer Gunsul Frasca Architects to foster collaboration, the building will include shared research space. USC is part of the Southern California Stem Cell Scientific Collaboration, an agreement between six research institutions in Southern California allowing members to share training programs, scientific core facilities, and expertise. The project received $27 million in funding from the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine.
