Medical School Update
The second Tuesday of the month at 7:30 a.m. at Tom's Tavern (NE corner of 1st Ave and Washington), there is a breakfast discussion on various topics. Today it was about the U of A Medical School. I learned a few tidbits.
1) Arizona has a shortage of doctors. We are 45th in the nation with 207 doctors/capita versus the national average of 283 doctors/capita.
2) There has only been one other medical school built in the US in the last 30 years.
3) The three new buildings will only hold 24 students. They will build additional buildings at the 15 acre biomed complex so that they can eventually have 150 students.
4) The Arizona Biomedical Collaboration building (ABC1) building is currently under construction. It will be an ASU/UA research facility.
5) This biomed complex will eventually bring an enormous amount of money to Phoenix.
