Located at the corner of Seventh and Fillmore streets, CAMI will be adjacent to the Biomedical Sciences Partnership Building that houses the U of A College of Medicine – Phoenix.<br><br>"A strong life sciences innovation ecosystem is vital for Arizona's future, both for the health care our population will need and for the economic development opportunities necessary for the state to thrive," said University of Arizona President <strong>Suresh Garimella</strong>. "As the home to the southwest's leading academic medical center, the University of Arizona is in the perfect position to lead the way, and CAMI is a vital part of this."<br><br>A groundbreaking was held Oct. 30 for the more than 200,000-square-foot, seven-story building that will house research laboratories, a clinical suite, administrative and meeting spaces, and an urban garden and café. The building is expected to be completed in 2027.<br><br>"The dream of CAMI started to become a reality with initial support from the Arizona Board of Regents' New Economy Initiative. Additional funding from the state, county and city, as well as philanthropic donations, has made this important step forward possible. We are grateful to everyone who has supported CAMI's mission and to McCarthy + SmithGroup for helping bring our vision to life," said <strong>Dr.</strong> <strong>Michael D. Dake</strong>, senior vice president for the U of A Health Sciences. "Through CAMI, we will be able to capitalize on the research and expertise at the University of Arizona Health Sciences and become a national leader in advanced immunotherapies research and treatments." <br><br>CAMI builds on the idea that the most effective defense against health issues is the body's natural immune system. CAMI's goal is to develop new strategies for the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of cancers, infectious diseases and autoimmune conditions.<br><br>CAMI will accelerate the pursuit of therapies by bringing in new ideas and advancing research already underway at the University of Arizona Health Sciences to improve health outcomes for people across Arizona and around the world.<br><br>"CAMI presents a significant opportunity to move the basic immunological discoveries being made at the University of Arizona and our partner institutions into new therapies for infectious diseases, autoimmune conditions and cancers," said <strong>Deepta Bhattacharya</strong>, inaugural executive director of CAMI and a professor of <a href="https://click.comms.arizona.edu/?qs=51f8cbcecbc380d17b802ddab1bc9ecc1ac643eae39bb23f85ca7a3a47d99cf0d60f40797cf384e47d3e434e8ab3e480389d0955ff841d80" title="immunobiology"><strong>immunobiology</strong></a> at the <a href="https://click.comms.arizona.edu/?qs=51f8cbcecbc380d17fe6f46d7f6462972f41d4cf07dfbd9e6baa3a2fc799d6cd49afeb518bf07727b186ca5b9acb226b46281a6030b5d217" title="U of A College of Medicine – Tucson"><strong>U of A College of Medicine – Tucson</strong></a>. "I am looking forward to the new collaborations CAMI sparks, not only in research but also in clinical investigation and entrepreneurship, that will allow us to take these basic findings across the finish line and start new companies focused on the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of diseases with an immunological basis." <br><br>The CAMI building is being designed and constructed by the design-build team of McCarthy + SmithGroup. Both McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. and SmithGroup are nationally recognized, Phoenix-based firms with expertise in designing and building educational and research facilities.<br><br>McCarthy + SmithGroup designed and built the award-winning U of A's Applied Research Building, which is the first building in the country to house all research spaces related to the fabrication and testing of satellites in one integrated facility.<br><br>During the construction process, CAMI research is being conducted on the second floor of the Biomedical Sciences Partnership Building at 475 N. Fifth Street, which houses laboratory and administrative space for CAMI scientists.</p></div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="news-layout-right-column" class="col-xl-4"> <div > <h3>Topics</h3> <div class="field field--name-field-custom-news-categories field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news-story-categories/health-wellness" hreflang="en">Health & Wellness</a></div> </div> </div> <div > <h3>Tags</h3> <div class="field field--name-field-az-news-tags field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news-tags/college-health-sciences" hreflang="en">College of Health Sciences</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news-tags/college-medicine-phoenix" hreflang="en">College of Medicine - Phoenix</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news-tags/research" hreflang="en">Research</a></div> <div class="field__item"><a href="/news-tags/garimella" hreflang="en">Garimella</a></div> </div> </div> <div id="media-resources"> <h3>Resources for the Media</h3> <a href="/news-releases" role="button" target="_blank" id="newsroom-button-link" class="btn btn-red btn-block my-3"> </a> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-news-media-contact field--type-entity-reference field--label-above"> <h2 class="field__label h3">Media Contact(s)</h2> <div class='field__items'> <div class="field__item"> <article class="node node--type-az-person node--view-mode-news-right-column-full-content-mode clearfix"> <header> </header> <div class="node__content clearfix"> <div id="mr-contacts-card" class="card"> <div id="mr-contacts-card-body" class="m-3"> <div><a href="/person/phil-villarreal" hreflang="en"><span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">Phil Villarreal</span> </a></div> <div class="field field--name-field-az-titles field--type-string field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item">University of Arizona Health Sciences Office of Communications</div> </div> <div class="field field--name-field-az-email field--type-email field--label-hidden text-truncate d-block"><a href="mailto:pvillarreal@arizona.edu">pvillarreal@arizona.edu</a></div> <div class="field field--name-field-az-phones field--type-telephone field--label-hidden field__items"> <div class="field__item"><a href="tel:520-621-8659">520-621-8659</a></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> </div> </div> </section> </main> </div> </div> <section class="region region-full-width-content-bottom"> <div class="views-element-container bg-cool-gray block block-views block-views-blocktrending-az-news-block-4" id="trending-in-news-article-attch"> <div class="content"> <div><div class="px-3 view view-trending-az-news view-id-trending_az_news view-display-id-block_4 js-view-dom-id-576ac5584ce276aefa1d5e2132ff7e06812c057196ff7b95dc989796c2aec975"> <div class="view-content"> <div> <article class="node node--type-az-news node--view-mode-news-trending-list clearfix"> <header> </header> <div class="node__content clearfix"> <div class="row position-relative d-block list-group-item-action ml-0"> <a href="/news/service-school-how-u-supports-military-connected-students" class="field-group-link text-decoration-none" hreflang="en"> <div class="media"> <div class="media-left mr-3"> <div class="field field--name-field-az-media-image field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden field__item"> <img loading="lazy" class="img-fluid image-style-thumbnail" src="https://cdn.uanews.arizona.edu/s3fs-public/styles/thumbnail/public/2025-02/VETS-Profile-Feature.jpg.webp?VersionId=FFZeDN5SCrdf8IEMczUCvXGO26STsWxB&itok=BmdI-T65" width="100" height="64" alt="A U.S. Navy service member in a camouflage uniform chats with two men seated at a front desk in a military student support center.
