Overlooking the Hudson River and the City of Albany, the 125,000-sf Gen*NY*sis Center is the signature structure of the East Campus Technology Park. The park is a model for the co-location of academia, industry, and government. The multi-tenanted facility houses research programs investigating the molecular mechanisms of cancer. Research laboratories and core support facilities include proteomics, mass spectrometry, microarray, molecular biology, and a rodent facility. This first building in a 1 million square foot master plan for the East Campus, is supported by the state's $500 million Gen*NY*sis program.
