A translational research centre designed to create an environment for innovative “bench-to-bedside” health research by increasing interaction between researchers and clinicians focused on common medial issues. HRIF West, the hub of the complex is an 8-story building which provides the main entrance to the complex and becomes the critical link between the Medical Sciences Building and Heritage Medical Research Center. HRIF East is one of the largest in Canada at over 5,000 square feet over 9 stories. A Bio-Hazard Level 3 laboratory is located in the basement of the building.
Aqua Air supplied and commissioned complex air-flow controls for this flexible space. Laboratory air (HEPA filtered) and exhaust fans (biosafety cabinets) were also integral in HRIF design.
