MADISON, Wis. — In a few days UW Hospital will open the doors to the area’s only interdisciplinary research complex.
Wisconsin Institutes for Medical Research, or WIMR as it is known to those in the local medical community, is unique in that surgeons, researchers and bio-engineers will all work side-by-side to tackle problems and bring innovative medicine from the lab to patients’ bedsides.
Doctors have long thought of such a complex as the holy grail of medicine.
