  • The University of Pennsylvania has 165 active research centers and institutes.

On February 4th the University of Pennsylvania broke ground on the Krishna P. Singh Nanotechnology Center.  This $80 Million Research Facility was made possible in part because of a $20 Million gift from Krishna P. Singh.

On May 20, 2011, researchers and laboratory supply and science companies are welcome to attend the 11th Annual BioResearch Product Faire™ Vendor Show on campus at the University of Pennsylvania.
