Eckhardt Center to foster precision science The University of Chicago next September will begin construction of the William Eckhardt Research Center, an architecturally innovative building that will host a broad spectrum of 21st-century science, from investigation of the deepest cosmic mysteries to manipulations of matter on the scale of atoms and molecules. The building is named for Chicago futures trader and alumnus William Eckhardt, SM'70, in recognition of his $20 million gift in support of advanced science at the University. http://www.uchicago.edu/features/2010... ➡ Subscribe: http://bit.ly/UCHICAGOytSubscribe About #UChicago: Since its founding in 1890, the University of Chicago has been a destination for rigorous inquiry and field-defining research.
