Renovation provides state of the art research facilities for the National Eye Institute, the National Institute of Child Health and Development, National Human Genome Research Institute, and the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases. Specialized features include Nuclear Magnetic Resonators as well as a Zebra Fish study facility.
