Introduction to the Institute of Human Performance

The quest to realize the full power of human potential takes a giant leap forward with the opening of the Institute for Human Performance at SUNY Upstate Medical University.

This spectacular, skylit structure houses an array of interactive enterprises dedicated to biomedical and clinical research, rehabilitation and education. Their common denominator is a commitment to dissolve the limitations of disease, disability and aging.

This inspirational, $50 million facility showcases the world's most advanced biomedical technology and places our University in a league with the world's experts on human activity. The Institute's power lies as much in its synergy as in its technology. This is where once-isolated disciplines, institutions and populations will join forces and blaze trails to new heights of human performance.

This dramatic addition to Upstate Medical University enhances each dimension of its threefold mission: patient care, research and medical education.
