UIUC

Since its founding in 1867, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign has earned a reputation as a world-class leader in research, teaching, and public engagement... At Illinois, our focus on research shapes our identity, permeates our classrooms and fuels our outreach. Fostering discovery and innovation is our fundamental mission. As a public, land-grant university, we have the responsibility to create new knowledge and new ideas and translate these into better ways of working, living and learning for our state, nation and world... The exhibit opened in the summer of 2020 and celebrates the invention of MRI by late UIUC chemistry faculty member Paul Lauterbur along with the foundational research that started on campus in the 1940s and 1950s, leading to this world-changing innovation.
