Staff from the University of Oxford and Oxford University Hospitals celebrate progress on the new neuroscience building
A TOPPING out ceremony has been held on the construction site of the new Neuroscience Research Centre at the John Radcliffe Hospital, with the new facility on course to open its doors next summer.
Oxford University’s new neuroscience research facility will be the UK’s first dedicated centre for research into stroke and dementia.
The new state-of-the-art facility will house a number of research groups, such as those investigating how the brain recovers after damage and how the brain processes pain.
Funded by the Wolfson Foundation and the Wellcome Trust, the building is designed by Oxford-based architects FJMT and is being built by main contractor SDC.
