This building elevates the expectation of what a medical examiner facility should be. It recognizes the demanding and honorable mission of forensic science, a profession too often conducted in dark, windowless boxes. Instead, it brings a world-class medical center to the community, one that better serves pathologists, scientists, technicians, law enforcement and grieving families.
