Environment of Discovery

 

In concept, design and actuality, the Wisconsin Institutes for Medical Research (WIMR) is achieving the goals that school leaders had in mind for it. The state-of-the-art facilities, open laboratory design and limited boundaries afford occupants - from the most basic researchers to physicians who conduct research and also see patients - the opportunity to work in close physical proximity. This has proved true for scientists such as Jamey Weichert.
