Bringing nearly a half-million square-feet of newly constructed medical research and clinical facilities to the area, the Leon and Norma Hess Center for Science and Medicine meets the expansion needs of Mount Sinai's world-class research and clinical programs.

Featuring a layout including six full floors of laboratory space and two floors of outpatient clinical space, the new building increases Mount Sinai's research space by fifty percent.  A full floor is devoted for advanced imaging technologies.  The new space augments existing capabilities in cancer patient care and enables patients to receive multidisciplinary care by a team of doctors and other specialists.
