In 2007, Yale University purchased the property formerly occupied by Bayer Pharmaceuticals in West Haven and Orange, CT.  The site is comprised of 20 buildings on 136 acres and includes 1.6 million square feet of research, office and warehouse space.  Despite the ample, modern laboratory facilities full-scale renovations must be completed to realize our ambitious plans to deploy six multidisciplinary research institutes with complementary academic and administrative programming.  To date, more than 75,000 ft2 have been renovated or converted to house chemists, biologists, geneticists and geologists, along with three professionally-staffed Core service laboratories. The next phase of campus development begins in January 2012 with the demolition and rebuild of 53,000+ ft2.  Examples across the construction spectrum � reuse, repurposing, and renovation � will be presented along with Yale's strategic approach to comprehensive laboratory design.  Additional highlights will include Yale's funding strategies and the role of support services in the design phase.
