The Burnham Institute in Florida is a high-tech laboratory that strives to save lives by focusing on key health-related issues, such as cancer, aging, and neurosciences. But while the lab seeks to sustain and improve the lives of others, that focus doesn't stop with research and test results, it also involves the very building where researchers do their work. Its design helps foster research collaboration and quality of life through green features that include smart water use, breathable ventilation systems, and energy-saving technology. How does your research setting help to sustain your work?
