uOttawa making the largest investment in its history to fuel health research
Members of the Ottawa’s healthcare community joined researchers, educators, community leaders and investors on May 9 to break ground on the Advanced Medical Research Centre (AMRC), the University of Ottawa’s new initiative to grow the medical biotechnology sector in the Ottawa region.
Scheduled to open in 2026, the ARMC is uOttawa’s largest capital investment it its history. It will bridge the gap between the discovery and commercialization of health treatments, providing 350,000 square feet of ultra-modern laboratory and research space.
Better healthcare starts here.
