Smart Building Control Systems Serving Eastern Washington, Idaho, Eastern Oregon, Montana and Western North Dakota
Idaho National Laboratory (INL) is an 890 Square Mile campus located in the high desert of Eastern Idaho. INL is the nation’s leading center for nuclear energy research and development. INL works in each of the strategic goal areas of DOE: energy, national security, science and environment. Currently ATS services all the INL buildings while successfully adhering to highly critical building demands and is continuously involved in the latest designs.
The new facility is composed of 50,000 square feet, including 11 laboratories devoted to cadaver dissection, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, microscopy, cell culture, wet labs, and nursing clinical and simulations. Additionally, the building includes a new science lecture hall, four classrooms, a vivarium (a display of living animals) and an advanced air handling system for biology and chemistry.
“The new laboratory is the largest and most advanced in the region, with the latest cutting-edge technology that will allow us to efficiently reduce the turn-around time for tests. It will enable us to perform work that has historically been sent out of state and prepares us for future advances in the field of molecular testing, ” said Chris Roth, chief operating officer for St. Luke’s Treasure Valley operations. “St. Luke’s enjoys strong partnerships with all regional medical technology programs and we expect that the laboratory will also be a key training lab for students pursuing education in the field of Laboratory Medicine.“
