A Desert-Friendly Research Hub
The University of Arizona, Bioscience Research Laboratories
Laboratories and Research
The Bioscience Research Laboratories building is the third ZGF-designed facility in the research complex that includes the Medical Research Building and the Thomas W. Keating Bioresearch Building. It accommodates research informatics in the life sciences, translational imaging, and research to help advance the understanding of the molecular basis of human health, aging, and disease. The new building provides creative spaces to foster individual creativity and facilitate collaboration among scientists from different disciplines, including the physical sciences. Comprised of wet, damp and dry research laboratories, laboratory support areas, offices, conference rooms, and specialized core facilities, the building’s design and layout maximizes flexibility to allow reconfiguration of the laboratories and office spaces in response to evolving changes in technology and research priorities. The project has been awarded Three Green Globes by the Green Building Initiative™.
