The Duck helped celebrate the grand opening of the University of Oregon's new integrative science building on October 26, 2012.

The facility, designed to unite neuroscientists, cancer researchers, chemists, and molecular biologists, is on track to earn LEED Platinum certification. Its shared technologies and high-performance instruments, including the expanded capabilities of the Lewis Center for Neuroimaging, are available to partners in the private sector. Researchers look forward to making new kinds of connections that enhance the education of UO students and lead to discoveries of benefit to human health and society.
