Furnishing Moveable Equipment for the Expansion of the Versiti Blood Research Institute to Increase Capacity for Blood Disease Research and Translational Science - Legal Address: Versiti Blood Health, Inc. 638 N 18th Street Milwaukee, WI 53233-2121 Place of Performance Address: Versiti Blood Research Institute 8733 W Watertown Plank Rd Wauwatosa, WI 53266-3548 Project Director Name: Bartholomew J. Reuter (p) 414-937-6418 breuter@versiti.org www.versiti.org All Grant Program Funds Requested: $3,000,000 in Moveable Equipment Descriptive Title: Furnishing Moveable Equipment for the Expansion of the Versiti Blood Research Institute to Increase Capacity for Blood Disease Research and Translational Science Project Abstract The purpose of this project is to furnish essential moveable equipment to a new 79,000 sq. ft. addition to the world-renowned Versiti Blood Research Institute (VBRI), located in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. The principal investigators working at the VBRI are world leaders in the field and conduct basic and translational research across multiple disciplines, including cancers, bleeding and clotting disorders, cellular therapies, molecular biology, and rare diseases. The work conducted at VBRI has led to several life-saving discoveries, such as the technology that enabled bone marrow transplantation between unrelated individuals, which significantly increased transplant opportunities nationwide. Versiti has a unique opportunity to be a national leader in advancing treatments and cures for blood diseases through the expansion of the VBRI campus. Versiti has the resources to hire up to 15 additional laboratory-based investigators (as well as supporting lab staff), and up to 5 clinical investigators, but the VBRI has run out of space in its existing building. Versiti is nearing the finalization of a newly constructed facility expansion, opening by the end of 2026, to build capacity for the new principal investigators, laboratories, and support services. This grant will cover the cost of critically important lab equipment and other moveable equipment for the VBRI expansion.
