Our New Lab

After two and a half years of intense renovation that saw the building stripped down to bare concrete, the MacLeod Building renewal is nearly complete. Our main lab will double in size and include much new research equipment. We look forward to moving back from our temporary quarters and opening the brand new Radio Science Lab in late Summer 2022!



State of renovations as of 10 March 2022.
