Planning translational research buildings and space: Three case studies

The evolution of research models from single science disciplines to multidisciplinary and finally to transdisciplinary approaches has significantly transformed the landscape of scientific inquiry, and organizations worldwide have been developing bespoke collaborative research models to fulfill their unique missions. In this session, Deepa Balgi and Jeff Puleo take a deep dive into three case studies that highlight how different designs support translational research with an eye towards collaboration, community, connectivity, and research productivity. They compare and contrast goals vs. outcomes for each model, and detail lessons learned.
