Description:

The Kansas City Field Station (KCFS) was a major field installation of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for many years, particularly known for its contributions to the epidemiologic studies of histoplasmosis, a fungus infection which is endemic in the Mississippi Valley. KCFS was located on the University of Kansas Medical Center (KUMC) campus and was integrated as part of the Medical Center. KCFS was shut down as a consequence of the federal budgetary crunch of 1973.
