Key Trend at the 2023 Laboratory Design Conference

Find out the key trends from the conference: converting, repurposing, and renovating existing spaces into first-class laboratory facilities.
 
AUSTIN, Texas - June 18, 2023 - PRLog -- This year the Laboratory Design Conference selected San Diego to host the annual gathering of industry professionals working in the fields of lab design, construction management, and scientific innovation.

In the words of one of the presenters at the conference, Jennifer Swedell, the San Diego of today is a world-class center for laboratory research, having gotten its start with the founding of UC San Diego in 1960, the gift of 27 acres by the City to the Salk Institute for Biological Studies (which built its famous research facility designed by renowned architect Louis Kahn), followed by the founding of the Scripps Research Institute (now known as the Scripps Research Institute). Today San Diego boasts $1.55 billion in research funding (in 2021), and it's the home of key research-focused companies, including Illumina, Qualcomm, and the J. Craig Venter Institute (JCVI).

And San Diego's lab ecosystem just keeps growing, as evidenced by the new Lusk Innovation Portfolio life science project, a $1 billion office park conversion project that will convert nine existing office buildings on a 20-acre campus into 2.5 million square feet of new, state-of-the-art research facilities. Conference attendees received an update from two of the key players working on this landmark project, Scott Potter, Director of Design and Construction at Boston-based Longfellow Real Estate Partners, and Joseph Marshall, Principal at Flad Architects.
