Project Description

The Animal Diagnostic Laboratory (ADL) Addition at University Park will provide a 30,000 square foot addition to accommodate current and projected operational needs proficiently and safely. The ADL was originally constructed in 1956 with renovations and a significant addition being completed in 1999. The new addition will house a sample receiving area, shared core laboratory space, Bacteriology, Serology, Virology, Histopathology, Parasitology labs, Molecular Diagnostics, Pathology, and conference, office, and support spaces.  The replacement of the existing incinerator is also included. Other renovations to the existing facility and demolition of existing adjacent buildings will be explored as budget permits.
