The Louise and James Robert Moffett Molecular
Biology Building
|
|
The University's commitment to the Institute's success was
demonstrated by the completion of the new 150,000 square foot Louise and James
Robert Moffett Molecular Biology Building (MBB) in October, 1997. Built at a
cost of approximately $28 million, the MBB provides state-of-the-art research
facilities for twenty-five faculty investigators (some still to be recruited).
Each of the Institute's investigators is assisted in research by a select staff
of postdoctoral researchers, graduate and undergraduate students, technicians,
and specialists.

The building affords an excellent combination
of functionality and aesthetic beauty

Location is extremely important for any undertaking such as the
Institute. This modern and architecturally stimulating facility offers easy
access to primary thoroughfares and the University of Texas Austin campus. The
Molecular Biology Building adjoins the present Life Science buildings and is a
short walk from the College of Engineering, College of Pharmacy, and other
supporting institutions. Adjacent buildings house fifty additional research
faculty members of the ICMB, who are affiliated with numerous departments in
the College of Natural Sciences, as well as the Colleges of Engineering and
Pharmacy.
