collaboration models. Travers Nelson and Marty Kajic illustrate space and
budget efficiencies achieved by capitalizing on interdisciplinary synergies
in curricula and sharing of infrastructure and core facilities. They examine
how visual openness at a manageable scale serves to engage students and
teaching faculty, and they highlight the technology solutions employed to
support new teaching methods and learning styles – with greatly reduced
energy requirements.
The culture of collaboration: Building
efficient and productive scientific
neighborhoods
Wake Forest University School of Medicine
Jason D. Kaplan, MUP – Director of Academic Resources
Here you’ll see a new organizational model for research space that delivers
high space efficiency and facility adaptability for changing programs,
while maintaining an organizational focus on the next discovery. Jason
Kaplan illustrates the use of “scientific neighborhoods” at Wake Forest
University School of Medicine to integrate new recruits into goal-centered
teams, manage the constant expansion/compression of programs, and
reduce wasted space and resources. He profiles a facility optimization pilot
project built on the scientific neighborhood concept that is delivering a
vibrant, productive scientific community, and he details best practices and
processes for facility layout, programming, and culture change.
Facility expansions and upgrades
for energy research: Infrastructure,

A phased build-out strategy for scientific
program alignment without costly rework
Town Hall Knowledge Roundup
University of Massachusetts, Amherst
Peter Gray-Mullen – Capital Project Manager
This closing session is where key ideas, new developments, and findings
that have been revealed over the course of the entire two-day conference
(including sessions you may have missed) get clarified, expanded upon,
and affirmed or debated. This is also the opportunity to get answers from
industry leaders and the entire audience to specific questions on key and
challenging issues.
The core-and-shell strategy of leaving space unbuilt for yet-to-beidentified research programs is paying dividends for UMass Amherst,
allowing the university to postpone decisions on specific scientific
features until programs have been identified, and avoiding costly rework.
Peter Gray-Mullen examines timing decisions and lessons learned from
constructing the first half of a new Life Sciences Building which have
shaped what’s going into the Phase II build-out. He illustrates what’s
changed in terms of scientific programs, funding, and core facility
use, and he dissects rationales for imaging facilities, data processing
capability, and more.

Session leaders examine what is in today’s STEM facility toolbox to support a new
generation of scientists with very different learning requirements, and they profile
current benchmarks, emerging trends, and innovative solutions from public, private,
and two-year institutions. They illustrate how institutional priorities and constraints,
visual connectivity, mingled students and faculty, blended active/collaborative
environments for learning and discovery, and integrated emerging technologies
determine lab, office, and support space allocations and configurations. AIA HSW
Breathe new life into legacy buildings to meet the demands of modern interdisciplinary science and maximize space utilization without the need for new construction.
Here, session leaders profile a multiple-phase renovation and reuse strategy at the
University of Southern California Dornsife College of Letters, Arts, and Sciences
where legacy library and instructional spaces are converted into modern research
and science laboratories. They set out rationales and costs associated with phased
build-out/re-purpose/renovate decisions, and they highlight critical steps for
feasibility study processes and infrastructure evaluations, including criteria for size
and location of vertical duct penetrations, utility requirements, and more. AIA HSW

High-growth engineering and science programs: It’s a whole new ballgame that
requires transformative, effective, and efficient campus and space plans. Texas
A&M’s “25 by 25 Initiative” is a poster-child for explosive growth plans, calling for
engineering enrollment to double from 12K to 25K students in the next ten years.
Here session leaders chart processes being used to rework an entire engineering
program physical environment, including re-examining space inventory for new
potential, re-imagining and repurposing non-academic space for engineering, adding
modern features for recruiting and retention, delivering flexible spaces to support new
educational pedagogies, and developing applied lab spaces for multi-disciplinary,
collaborative teams. AIA HSW

Tom Fortier, AIA – Vice President | Regional Director, Science + Technology
Stanford University School of Medicine
Niraj Dangoria – Associate Dean, Facilities Planning and Management
New findings indicate that extreme flexibility may not be necessary to achieve budget
and end-user success, even if research programs are largely unidentified during
programming. Niraj Dangoria and Tom Fortier demonstrate the use of new planning
processes and science space phenotypes in renovation and repurposing initiatives
at Stanford University School of Medicine, and how they support the trend toward
co-located problem-based research initiatives. They deliver findings on flexibility needs
discovered between extreme wet and dry environments, the planning and budgeting
implications for research laboratory infrastructure, and what’s actually required for
program-responsive, adaptable science spaces. AIA HSW

Dean R. Appling, PhD – Associate Dean for Research and Facilities
For institutions wanting to aggressively expand the number of researchers, faculty,
and students without the need for new facility construction, realigning the science
master space plan should be Step One. Leon Drachman and Dean Appling examine
how one of the largest colleges of science in the US has retooled its master plan to
guide faculty and student growth, increase program innovation, and realign facilities
with the institution’s mission – all without the addition of a single square foot of new
construction. They illustrate critical processes for discovering, communicating, and
prioritizing high-value space use opportunities. AIA HSW

This session assesses 17 recently completed projects to see how they stack up in
terms of four key planning questions for modern STEM facilities: 1) What should
students accomplish in STEM disciplines?; 2) What experiences do they need?; 3)
What STEM spaces enable those experiences?; and 4) What evidence validates a
space’s effectiveness? Session leaders distill the most effective ratios of traditional,
active learning, and informal learning spaces, and deliver lessons learned on schedule
and space utilization impacts of blended facilities. They illustrate processes for
improving learning outcomes, fostering faculty engagement, and developing new
space and curriculum models. AIA HSW
Early decisions on zoning of programmatic elements can deliver dramatic energy
savings and reduce building infrastructure requirements – a win for both first costs
and operating costs. Session leaders illustrate what the programmatic zoning strategy
delivers through case studies of the new Bio-Sciences Research Building at National
University of Ireland Galway and projects currently in design. They contrast traditional
laboratory planning metrics with a more leading edge approach using evidence-based
values for heat rejection, plug-loads, and air-changes per hour to significantly reduce
energy usage intensity. They profile the results: facilities that are sustainable, flexible,
dense, interactive, and collaborative. AIA HSW

Creative new work environments that are health-positive, flexible, and emphasize
teaming are delivering increased student and researcher productivity, and also yielding
space utilization improvements, better energy efficiency, and productivity gains. Howard
Skoke and Steve McDaniel profile three case studies to demonstrate unique new designs
for modern scientific workspace that respond to multi-generational demographics,
support multiple work modes, and promote interaction and teamwork. They examine
how traditional space standards have now been eclipsed by new flexible configurations
with adaptable furniture systems, improved workplace acoustics, functional zoning, and
the use of open space and daylighting. AIA HSW

How can 5-, 10-, even 20-year science education and research plans stay ahead
of the curve in an environment of rapid science and technology advancement, and
institutional mission transformation cycles? Session leaders identify critical features of
science and engineering programs and infrastructure investment models that maintain
relevance and flexibility, accommodate future teaching and research modes, and
keep campuses competitive. They examine thematic science organization models and
shared resource strategies that attract faculty, deliver improved research outcomes,
and increase student enrollment, and show how that translates to space ratios for wet
and dry lab space, core facilities, and office/conference spaces. AIA HSW

Michael Reagan – Vice President
Jill Swensen – Principal
Sean Thompson – Senior Associate
Integration, collaboration, and flexibility are the buzzwords in today’s modern science
planning vocabulary, but what do they mean for the teaching and research missions
and space plans at your institution? Session leaders scope out new benchmarks for
floor plate efficiency, integration of teaching with research labs, and collaboration space
allocation using a host of new and renovated STEM facilities as case studies. They
profile alternative strategies for organizing teaching and research labs, interdisciplinary
facilities, support and collaboration space, and examine how to optimize floor plans for
improved functionality and better research and learning outcomes. AIA HSW
T. Near net-zero energy use: Sustainable
technology combinations that deliver
Aircuity, Inc.
Gordon P. Sharp – Chairman
Safety concerns and the intense use of outside air make net zero energy use
laboratories a challenging proposition – one some say can’t be achieved in certain
climates. Gordon Sharp illustrates sustainability solutions employed at the Masdar
Institute of Science and Technology (250,000 sq. ft. of net wet lab space) to achieve
near net zero energy use through a combined strategy of VAV lab and exhaust fan
control, demand based control of air changes, chilled beams, photovoltaics, and heat
recovery. He demonstrates a predictive model for estimating energy use and capital
cost reduction to inform decisions on which technologies to adopt. AIA HSW
