The Burnham Institute for Medical Research opened in April 2009 as a focal point in what is to be Lake Nona 's "medical city." It will be "the research anchor" for the La Jolla, CA based institute with its primary focus centering on cancer. UCF's Medical School and a research facility constructed by the University of Florida will complete the $85 million dollar 175,000 square-foot plan for a "biotech center." Burnham Institute will continue to advance medical technology and stimulate job growth for "high skilled, high paying jobs" to southeast Orlando 's Lake Nona.

Their primary goal of making medical discoveries that benefit the community it serves as well as contributing to the lives of its employees and the community around it is accentuated by its glazed windows and "high performance exterior glass."
