The building has research "neighborhoods," open-plan modules that allow workstations to be located in direct proximity to lab benches and next to exterior windows for maximum exposure to natural light. The facility has won awards for its energy efficient design. Building features include a nuclear magnetic resonance suite and showers for joggers and bicyclists.
