The University of Arizona Health Sciences has selected the design-build team of McCarthy + SmithGroup to develop the Center for Advanced Molecular and Immunological Therapies, or CAMI, a biomedical research hub focused on developing biological therapies that stimulate or suppress the immune system to fight disease.
Both McCarthy Building Companies, Inc. and SmithGroup are nationally recognized Phoenix-based firms with unique expertise in designing and building educational and research facilities. Other projects completed by the respective firms include UArizona’s recently opened Applied Research Building in Tucson and the Translational Genomics Research Institute’s headquarters, which opened in 2005 on the Phoenix Bioscience Core, where CAMI also will be located.
