Title

Biomedical Sciences Facility

Description

The project will construct and operate a 92,300-gross square feet Biomedical Sciences Facility in the academic core area of the UC Santa Cruz campus. The proposed facility, which would include four stories above ground and a basement rodent vivarium, would provide interdisciplinary wet laboratory space, core specialized facilities and faculty offices for scientists from the departments of Molecular, Cell and Developmental Biology, Chemistry and Biochemistry, Environmental Toxicology, and Biomolecular Engineering, with concentrations in research in health and medical issues. The facility would not include classroom space. The new building would be located on a 1.5-acre site in the Science Hill area of the main campus at UC Santa Cruz, immediately north of the Sciences and Engineering Library and east of the Physical Sciences Building, on the south side of McLaughlin Drive, at the present location of a campus parking lot. Vehicle access to the building would be provided via McLaughlin Drive and an existing service drive that also accesses the Science and Engineering Library.
