UC Davis Plans Primate Research Center Expansion

Published 2/13/2007

UC Davis is proposing to construct five new buildings at the California National Primate Research Center in Davis, Calif. A $5.3-million, 10,000-sf building would accommodate virology and immunology research and would include a 1,100-sf BSL-3 laboratory. Four additional modular buildings would have a footprint of approximately 1,500 sf each, two comprised of laboratory space and two housing office space. Each of the modular buildings would cost approximately $800,000. Utility upgrades totalling $2.5 million are planned to serve the proposed project and would include telecommunications, natural gas, and domestic water mains.
