Faculty and staff offices are located on the first floor and on the Imaging (I) level. MRI scans are performed on the I level.

It is the largest building on the University of Maryland Baltimore (UMB) campus. The state-of-the-art facility provides biomedical researchers with laboratory space and new technology in order to accommodate an accelerated pace and scope of innovation and discovery.
