Columbia University Medical Center

Key features of this new center include a clinical simulation center with examination rooms and operating theaters, an anatomy quad with computer screens and task lighting where students will get to study and perform dissections on cadavers, several classrooms that can be configured differently based on the students' needs, outdoor spaces and a ground floor lobby and cafe as well as a 275 seat auditorium.

The building is named after the pharmaceutical industry executive and the University's College of Physicians and Surgeons alumnus P Roy Vagelos and his wife Diana, who made an initial lead contribution towards the construction of the new building.
