Don’t fall into the trap of planning labs to accommodate benches. Rather plan them for people and the activities those people will engage in – now and in the future. The next generation of researchers who will be using the labs you build today will be doing little if any bench handiwork. Instead, they will be users of highly automated electronic instruments, so plan accordingly – the traditional lab bench idea may not be your model of the future. And remember that the scientific equipment you are planning around now will very likely change by the time you occupy any newly constructed lab building, so plan accordingly.
