Academic
Medical Education Center of the Indiana University School of Medicine - Fort Wayne
Fort Wayne, Indiana
This new 42,000 s.f. building for the I.U. School of Medicine at IPFW houses research and office facilities for up to 10 faculty researchers, significantly increasing the size of the Fort Wayne Center's research faculty. Space is provided for shared research equipment such as instrumentation labs, tissue culture facilities, cold room and an incubator room for microbiology research. It also contains an accredited animal facility that increases the amount of current space available.
The Center contains state of the art classrooms and student computer facilities with a full range of digital presentation technology. Teaching laboratories and a gross anatomy lab are included in the building as well as four patient exam rooms for instruction in patient history taking and physical diagnosis, and a problem based learning lab. Students will have seven day/24-hour access to the teaching parts of the building, and limited access to the administrative and the research areas of the building after hours. Access to the animal care complex and gross anatomy laboratory is highly restricted at all times, controlled via electronic and security card access systems.
An updated administrative area houses administrative and clerical staff as well as a conference room with digital video conferencing capabilities to maintain contact with the other regional Centers and the School administration in Indianapolis. Appropriate study and lounge facilities are also provided.
Project was completed early 2009, with a total construction cost of $12.0 mil.
