UC Berkeley - Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute

When the former Berkeley Neuroscience Center, located on the first two floors of Barker Hall was vacated for a seismic upgrade project, an opportunity to improve the facility arrived. With generous support from a new donor¡ªOlympic gold medalist, Helen Wills Moody¡ªfunding became available to expand the facility.

The new Helen Wills Neuroscience Institute is a two-floor fit-up of the former facility. We provided design services for the renewed institute with each new floor organized around a ¡®suite¡¯ design, which promotes casual interaction among staff. For sensitive work in the new computational neuroscience labs, we provided acoustical privacy through use of a flexible/relocatable partition system.

Thanks to its new benefactor, the project provided additional positive impacts for staff and students on the third floor, home to the UC - Berkeley School of Public Health.

Services for this project were completed by the employees of GL Planning & Design prior to their employment at Â鶹´«Ã½.
