research building. The Michael F. Price Center for Genetic and Translational Medicine will be housed in the new
Harold and Muriel Block Research Pavilion and will contain 40 state-of-the-art research laboratories, nine shared
or core facilities, and a 100-seat auditorium.
Adjacent to the Jack and Pearl Resnick Campus are the clinical facilities of the Bronx
Municipal Hospital
Center which includes Abraham Jacobi and Nathan B. Van Etten Municipal
Hospitals and the
