ARCHELLO YOUR CONNECTION WITH ARCHITECTURE

The new Center for Science and Medicine will enable the realization of Mount Sinai’s translational research vision. The new facility integrates clinical and basic science research with an ambulatory care cancer center, uniting clinicians, scientists, educators and their colleagues in a unique, collaborative way.

The new building is intended to facilitate interactions through the integration of four types of space:

• Interactive Space: education spaces, lounges, informatics/ biostatistic computer facilities, and other core functions
• Basic Science Research Space: wet bench research, animal facilities and dry bench, computer-supported research
• Mount Sinai Brain Institute and Spinal Cord Injury Research Center, dedicated to neurological disease research, head, neck and spinal cord injury
• Center for Translational and Molecular Imaging: hot and cold diagnostic imaging, and modalities including MRI, PET, SPECT for research test subjects
• Cancer Center: linked by a multi-story lobby, consists of specialty outpatient care and clinical research space including clinical trials, outcomes research and policy studies

The Research Program is organized into a series of "neighborhoods". Each neighborhood promotes collaboration and spontaneous integration of clinical and basic science researchers, while providing efficient and flexible wet and dry laboratories for cancer and neurosciences research.
