The Legacy Biomechanics Laboratory is housed in the Legacy Clinical Research & Technology Center, a 65,000 sqft facility which opened in 1997. This Center provides all infrastructure required to ensure efficiency and integrity of research conduct:

• Biostatistics
• Financial Coordination / Grants Management
• Clinical trial support / IRB
• Comparative Medicine (AAALAC accredited)
• Surgery suite, dedicated for research

The Legacy Biomechanics Laboratory maintains 2,200 sqft of logistically arranged research areas and staff offices. It implemented Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) standards in 2001.
