Founding History of the BMC
The Biomedical Center was opened in October 2015 after a construction period of four years. However, the history of the center began in the mid-1990s, when the Faculty of Medicine made initial plans to concentrate its biomedical research at the Großhadern/Martinsried campus.

Building & Architecture
The Biomedical Center has been optimally integrated into the Martinsried campus. The building complex is divided into three parts: two research buildings and an elongated teaching building, which houses seminar rooms, rooms for practical trainings as well as two lecture halls.
