May 29, 2025

As seen in Long Island Business News and InnovateLI, on May 16 members of the New York Tech community and local elected officials gathered on the Long Island campus to mark the grand opening of the Biomedical Research, Innovation, and Imaging Center (BRIIC). The 20,000-square-foot facility provides researchers with new opportunities to advance discoveries and potential treatments for heart disease, cancer, Parkinson’s disease, and many other pressing conditions. In addition, an earlier posting on Patch.com’s Port Washington site highlighted the ribbon-cutting event, where university leaders also announced the launch of the Innovation and Entrepreneurship Academy.
