A Vision for the Future of Medicine | Brigham and Women’s Hospital |  on Vimeo

In 2016, Brigham and Women’s Hospital will take another historic step forward when it opens the Brigham Building for the Future, a facility designed to transform the future of medicine. This cutting edge building will help accelerate breakthroughs in biomedical research that will enhance our ability to fulfill a vital mission: to provide the most comprehensive and compassionate care to our patients.

Advancing patient care is the first priority of the Brigham Building for the Future, bringing together the world’s finest clinicians and scientists in the neurosciences, orthopedics, and rheumatology. Uniting caregivers and investigators in one place will enable us to break down the silos that stymie essential collaborations, helping to save more lives. With its innovative construction and state-of-the-art research space, the building will foster translational medicine—bringing research discoveries from the laboratory bench to patients—to solve neurologic, orthopedic, and rheumatologic puzzles such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and rheumatoid arthritis.

Patients visiting the Brigham Building for the Future will have access to the best technologies, which will allow our physicians to provide truly personalized care for each individual. Together, our experts will be caring and curing in the same space, using everyday interactions to propel innovations and discoveries.

• 360,000 square feet of program space
