Building 76, the new home of the Koch Institute, will feature roughly 180,000 square feet of state-of-the-art lab and workspace. The floor plans are specially designed to foster interaction and collaboration among biologists and engineers – both in terms of dedicated lab space and in the common areas, where informal talks will lead to new collaborations and spontaneous information-sharing. Together, our diverse faculty members will create a new culture of interdisciplinary cancer science.
In addition to lab and meeting space, the building will feature a ground-floor exhibit gallery that will be home to a changing display of art and information on MIT's leadership role in life sciences.
