The CORE Building at the Med Center

September 30, 2025

The future Center of Research Excellence (CORE) building in the University of Nebraska Medical Center’s EDGE District southwest of Farnam Street & Saddle Creek Road is taking shape. The approximately $105 million, 180,000 sq. ft. building, which is owned by UNMC, will support computer-based research and wet lab-based research for faculty as well as external organizations. It is projected to open in mid-2026.

The 30-acre EDGE District will be a hub for health-focused scientific discovery, entrepreneurship and commercialization, as well as a premier destination within the city — a place where individuals want to work, live and experience vibrant entertainment.
