A new building is coming to the Medical District from the same nonprofit behind UNLV’s Kirk Kerkorian Medical Education Building.

Nevada Health & Bioscience Corp. on Wednesday announced plans for a $44 million building — The NHBC Academic Laboratory — in the Medical District near downtown Las Vegas. The building will serve as a laboratory building for University Medical Center and a blood bank.

Located at 625 Shadow Lane, across from the Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine at UNLV, the state-of-the-art building will be two stories and 34,000 square feet. The ground floor will house a donor blood center and the second floor will be a specialized laboratory for UMC for microbiology and virology, tuberculosis identification, stem cell processing, drug toxicology and a molecular lab.
