Size: 110,000 ft2.
Project team: Cook Douglass Farr Lemons, Jackson, Miss. (architect).
Completion date: Summer 2013.
Description: Project, supported by federal funding from the HRSA, FDA, and NIH, will complete the School of Pharmacy's National Center for Natural Products Research. (Phase 1 was finished in 2000.) Stimulus funds allowed Phase II to go forward as a full project rather than the initially planned four-story building with only 1.5 floors of finished laboratory space. Phase II will include a facility for FDA clinical trials; an expanded repository for botanical specimens; laboratories for scale-up extraction and isolation of bulk natural products; laboratories for scale-up synthesis; GLP analytical facilities; GMP-compliant facilities for production of active pharmaceutical ingredients; and related laboratories.
