The Queen's Medical Research Institute

The Queen's Medical Research Institute
This new building is an excellent example of effective team working and collaboration between the commissioning body/client, the building Users, the Design Team and Contractors responsible for its construction. The driver for the project throughout all stages was the belief and strength of the original vision for the building as set out at the outset by the Dean of the Medical School to create a world class facility for research.
