Phoenix breaks ground on Bioscience Center
A new era in the development of Arizona biosciences has been launched, less than a year after Jeffrey Trent decided to return home to Phoenix to lead a new, innovative genomics institute. Dr. Trent joined Governor Janet Napolitano, Phoenix Mayor Skip Rimza, and other dignatiries in leading an audience of about 400 through groundbreaking ceremonies for the future headquarters of the Translational Genomics Research Institute and the International Genomics Consortium, inaugurating what promises to be a new chapter of economic development for downtown Phoenix and all of Arizona.
