Research Innovation Center
Colorado State University Foothills Campus
FWA, in association with RMJM Hillier, is designing the new Research Innovation Center after winning a design competition against three other firms. The Center includes an in vivo imaging facility for BSL-3 research, vivarium, cGMP manufacturing facility, and a laboratory / office building for university research and corporate client use. Start-up companies will be able to lease space in the new facility and be co-located with university researchers.
CONTINUED

The new facility is meant to encourage the transfer of technology in infectious disease research from the university to commercial applications. The laboratory spaces are planned to allow multiple size configurations using an internal interconnecting corridor system. Each laboratory module of 300 SF has an additional multi-purpose room of 100 SF that can serve as an equipment room, a tissue culture room, or even an office. The laboratories are planned to allow multiple size configurations using an internal interconnecting corridor system. An additional band of lab space allows labs as small as 200 SF for lease and core / support functions such as imaging or glassware washing.

All components are planned to relate to the existing Infectious Disease Research Complex on CSU’s Foothills Research Campus. The RIC building and the cGMP manufacturing facility are grouped on the site to give a new image for the entire Infectious Disease Complex upon entering the campus.
