New Papworth Hospital
It is an interesting and exciting time to join us. We are currently building a £165 million state-of-the-art Papworth Hospital on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus located in central Cambridge.
The co-location of Papworth Hospital with the other organisations on the Biomedical Campus will bring benefits to our patients as they will have immediate access to a range of services and also bring opportunities in terms of research and education on which the treatments of tomorrow will be based.
