In-Person Event // Cambridge, Massachusetts

As the needs of life sciences organizations continually evolve, space needs can change drastically even in the timeframe between the start of construction and occupancy, creating the challenge of designing a space that can support research for decades to come. In an upcoming presentation at Advancing Life Sciences Construction, Flad's Russ Drinker will share insights from successfully building adaptability into facility design to maximize future resilience at minimal cost.

Learning objectives:

  • Exploring the opportunities for flexible design options and the impact on project cost and schedule.
  • Identifying the main barriers in building flexibility into life science facilities and how to work towards overcoming them.
  • Ensuring MEP design has the capacity to deliver multimodal facilities and prevent cross-contamination.
