SAN DIEGO—The partnership that BioMed Realty has forged with the University of California San Diego to develop a Center for Novel Therapeutics will position the new facility as a global epicenter of university research, private companies and government entities, BioMed's senior director of leasing and San Diego market lead Kevin Tremblay tells GlobeSt.com. Earlier this month, the firm, a Blackstone Real Estate company, and UCSD announced the project, which will be home to university and local research organizations focused on finding critical treatments and potential cures for cancer and other chronic diseases.
The new building will be centered in the university's Science Research Park adjacent to Moores Cancer Center at UC San Diego Health. The 110,000-square-foot research hub will leverage the strength of the University's world-renowned doctors and research at Moores Cancer Center with private-sector companies looking to translate research into helping patients throughout the world. UCSD will be the anchor tenant.
We spoke with Tremblay about the project, how it is unique to San Diego and how he envisions the final product.
