Health Sciences Station is an LRT station operated by Edmonton Transit System in the city of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. It is located on the surface at 83 Avenue and 114 Street on the University of Alberta campus near the Northern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium, the Walter MacKenzie Health Sciences Centre, the Health Research Innovation Facility and the Canadian Blood Services Edmonton Blood Donor Clinic. A number of other medical facilities--including the Mazankowski Heart Institute (under construction), the Aberhart Centre, and the Cross Cancer Institute--are all within easy walking distance of the station.

Health Sciences Station opened on January 3, 2006, [1] and is the second LRT station built on the south side of the North Saskatchewan River. It was also the first above ground station to be built since Clareview Station opened in 1981 and the first station built as part of the South LRT Expansion which will add five new stations and 7.5 km of track to the system by 2010.

Health Sciences Station is the LRT's current southern terminus.
