Making the Impossible Possible

The David H. Murdock Research Institute (DHMRI) was established as a public charity to support groundbreaking research at the North Carolina Research Campus. Funded through a private grant by David H. Murdock, the DHMRI will host the world’s top talent and resources — and promote a level of scientific collaboration never before possible.

Central to this new collaborative approach are the diverse scientific disciplines represented at the DHMRI. Destined to be the catalyst of major scientific discoveries in health and nutrition, the DHMRI offers capabilities ranging from next-generation DNA sequencing to cutting-edge confocal imaging and the world’s first actively-shielded 950 MHz NMR. The DHMRI is the first of its kind, housing this unique collection of state-of-the-art instrumentation in one central location. Housed in the David H. Murdock Research Building, the DHMRI will cover over 80,000 square feet of specialized laboratory space.

With a goal to support and sustain breakthrough research, the DHMRI anticipates that its facilities will be made available to university research institutes and private companies located on the North Carolina Research Campus.
