===Health Sciences Campus===
The University of Calgary Board of Governors chose to launch a medical school in the late 1960s, with the first tangible building to house this endeavor being the Health Sciences Building, which opened in 1972. The Health Sciences Building shared a site with the [[Foothills Medical Centre]] some distance south of the Main Campus. This site became known as the Health Sciences Campus, with subsequent additions being the Heritage Medical Building (opened 1987), the Health Research Innovation Centre and the Teaching, Research and Wellness building.<ref>{{cite book |last=Wyse |first=D George |year=2010 |title=Hearts, Minds and Vision: Roots of the Libin Cardiovascular Institute of Alberta |publisher=Kingsley Publishing |isbn=978-1926832159 }}</ref>

The Snyder Institute for Chronic Diseases is also housed there, and after an interruption of several years and in light of the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] reopened in November 2020 its [[Biosafety level 3 laboratory]].<ref name="bsl3">{{cite news |last1=Johnston |first1=Kelly |title=UCalgary facility to further research into COVID-19 vaccine and treatments |url=https://news.ucalgary.ca/news/ucalgary-facility-further-research-covid-19-vaccine-and-treatments |publisher=University of Calgary |date=3 November 2020}}</ref> The university received a $427,785 grant from the [[Government of Canada]] to promote [[COVID-19 vaccine]] confidence and competence in communication and uptake among health professionals in training.<ref>{{Cite web |last=[[Public Health Agency of Canada]] |date=2022-06-08 |title=Immunization Partnership Fund |url=https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/immunization-vaccine-priorities/immunization-partnership-fund.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220912070019/https://www.canada.ca/en/public-health/services/immunization-vaccine-priorities/immunization-partnership-fund.html |archive-date=2022-09-12 |access-date=2022-09-12 |website=[[Government of Canada]]}}</ref>
