<p>Ballinger helped master plan the University's campus-wide animal facility strategy involving more than 100 existing satellite animal facilities. The primary outcome is the consolidation of existing facilities into two major hubs. The first of those hubs, the 90,000 SF East Campus Research Facility, is a multi-species vivarium and research facility. The new building provides housing and procedure space, in a "suite" concept, for the barrier (transgenic) facility on one level, and for "conventional" animals on two other levels. The building links directly to an existing research tower creating synergies between the two. </p>
