Our lobby entrance is located on Capitol Court, three blocks south of the Discovery Building and Union South on Orchard St., and one block south of the Geology Museum on Charter St. The entrance is the double blue doors closest to the Capitol and Coyne Court intersections.
We also conduct outreach programs in partnership with the Biotechnology Center, the Stem Cell and Regenerative Medicine Center and other campus entities. (Contact us for classroom stem cell teaching resources!)
Thanks to an increasing group of dedicated scientists, staff members and students, our outreach activities have reached more than 55,000 individuals from Wisconsin and beyond since 2010. Thank you to our many diverse audiences –we appreciate your interest!
