Sept. 1 for the 168,000-square-foot Medical Information Sciences Building (MISB) in Indianapolis. The new facility will provide space for five IU programs whose researchers are IU faculty members. IUPUI Chancellor Charles Bantz (at right) strolled along the canal near the building site following the ceremony. The Division of Children’s Health Services Research; the Center for Computational Biology and Bioinformatics; the Division of Biostatistics; the Center for Bioethics; and the Regenstrief Institute, Inc., will be housed in the new facility. Eli Lilly and Co. and Clarian Health Partners will have offices for scientists who work with IU faculty and researchers. An interview about the MISB, featuring Dr. Thomas Inui, associate dean for health-care research at the IU School of Medicine, may be accessed at this Inside INdiana with Gerry Dick Web site:
