Designing Laboratory Spaces for Enhanced Collaboration and Scientific Efficiency

This document explores the latest trends and requirements in laboratory design, emphasizing the importance of flexibility, collaboration, and efficient use of space. It highlights user needs such as attracting top scientists, enhancing interactions within labs and write-up areas, and adapting to ever-changing scientific demands. Key metrics for laboratory and bay space are presented, along with case studies of notable projects like the Francis Crick Institute and University of Glasgow's laboratories. The focus is on creating adaptable environments that promote operational efficiency in research settings.

  3. Content • Some common User requirements, analysis and trends • Space metrics • Lab bay metrics • Laboratory and write-up adjacency and interaction goals • Scientific adjacencies

  4. 1 Some common User requirements, analysis and trends

  5. Provide facilities to attract the best scientists • Improve scientific interactions in lab and non-lab space • Separate lab space from write-up space • Provide adaptability to ever changing scientific requirements with minimal cost and disruption • Improve operational efficiency

  6. The amount of time researchers spend doing traditional bench-style research—nearly a third of their time—has not changed dramatically since the 90’s. The amount of time they spend on traveland in meetings, however, has declined while the time they spend on computer-related research, e-mail, and the Internet has substantially increased.* * Source: Fraunhofer Institute - Lab 2020 / R&D Survey

  7. New emphasis on shared secondary laboratory space • Primary laboratory space needing to accommodate a wider range of science • a dramatic increase in the proliferation of flexible open lab arrangements in new research labs* • rise in collaboration largely driven by the now pervasive use of ICT* * Source: Fraunhofer Institute - Lab 2020 / R&D Survey
