The food truck craze that captured most of Florida has found its way to the University of Miami Medical campus and will arrive early next month. In addition to the food trucks, the Market Company’s Farmers Market will return to the campus. Balans Restaurant, a future UM Life Science & Technology Park (UM LSTP) tenant will sell wine and beer, and local entertainment will perform every Thursday from 5 – 9 pm.
South Florida’s future as a biotech hub got considerably brighter on Tuesday, when the University of Miami officially dedicated its ambitious Life Science & Technology Park (UMLSTP), a new endeavor UM President Donna E. Shalala called “a game-changer” for the Miami Health District and the Overtown community in which it is located.
“This is more than a building,” Shalala said to a crowd of almost 300 people who gathered in the lobby of R+D One, the first of five buildings for the planned eight-acre park. “This is a place where education, research, and technology intersect with discovery and innovation. This is the home of future cures and treatments for some of the most vexing and chronic problems we face today.”
