Description: THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on May 2,2024. Opened in 1988, the Pennington Center now houses 53 laboratories that span the Center''''s three programs - Basic Research, Clinical Research, and Population Science - nineteen Core Service laboratories, inpatient and outpatient clinics, a research kitchen, an administrative area, and more than $20 million in technologically advanced equipment. The Center was expanded in 1993 to include the C.B. Pennington Jr. Conference Center, now the C.B. Pennington Jr. Building, residence apartments, and an exercise and fitness facility. More than 80 faculty members and over 600 physicians, scientists, and support personnel focus their research efforts on 10 research program areas: Epidemiology and Prevention, Physical Activity and Health, Cancer, Diabetes, Obesity, Neurodegeneration, Genomics and Molecular Genetics, Stem Cell and Developmental Biology, Neurobiology, and Nutrient Sensing and Signaling. The Pennington Center is led by Dr. Steven B. Heymsfield, formerly of Merck Pharmaceuticals, who specializes in clincal research. The Center''''s funding is broad-based. The foundation is provided by an annual appropriation from the State of Louisiana. Additional funding is provided by grants and contracts from the National Institutes of Health, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the U.S. Department of Defense, and private sector organizations and companies. The Pennington Medical Foundation and Pennington Biomedical Research Foundation are also major financial resources. The Pennington Medical Foundation is charged with administering the original donation and subsequent gifts from the C.B. Pennington family and establishing guidelines for investments and expenditures.
