The Forsyth Institute, located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, is one of the leading centers for dental and craniofacial research in the world.
It was envisioned in 1908 by James Forsyth, who left $500,000 in his will for the establishment of a dental infirmary for poor children in Boston.
The museum acquired the institute's Fenway property prior to Forsyth's move to Cambridge in 2010.
The shared-space startup business incubator was initially planned to occupy about 5,000 square feet (460 m2) within Forsyth’s 70,000-square-foot (6,500 m2) headquarters space.
