Esch-Belval: Biomedicine Building launched

26 october, 2011

The new Biomedicine Building at Esch-Belval was, inaugurated on the 26th of September, the first of the planned University of Luxembourg buildings to be built on remediated industrial land at Belval. The building has a very plain design, and was built in a record two years. It will house the most modern laboratory in the Grand Region. One of the first tenants will be the Luxembourg Centre for Systems Biomedicine, led by international expert Dr. Rudi Balling. His interdisciplinary team of 50 biologists, doctors and computer technicians is working on developing “made-to-measure” medications, based on taking readings of an individual person’s biology.
