Building the future with biopharmaceuticals
Fourteen shovels plunged into a symbolic mound of dirt on UD's Science, Technology and Advanced Research (STAR) Campus on Oct. 23, the ceremonial start of construction on a six-story, $156 million Biopharmaceutical Innovation Building. It will be a gateway, UD officials hope, to a major role for Delaware in the emerging biopharmaceutical sector, where scientists and innovators will tackle some of the world's most vexing diseases and help prepare a world-class workforce.
