State and federal dignitaries joined officials from the University of Connecticut Monday to dedicate the school’s new Cell and Genome Sciences Building at its Health Center campus in Farmington.
The building at 400 Farmington Ave. houses high tech research, including the UConn Stem Cell Core, genetic sequencing, computer modeling and incubator space for emerging bioscience industries.
State and university officials have high hopes for the facility saying it could play a defining role in forming a robust bioscience cluster in Greater Hartford.

Staff includes more than 100 chemists, physicists, geneticists, biologists, mathematicians and computer scientists to fuel advanced research and ultimately, the transfer of that technology to the marketplace and patient care.
