Bennett Johnston Health and Environmental Research Building (JBJ) which fosters interdisciplinary and translational research among faculty in the School of Medicine, School of Public Health & Tropical Medicine, and School of Science and Engineering. The seven-story, 184,000 ft2 building with ballroom-style laboratories and modular design is configured for flexible reconfiguration as research activities and needs evolve.
