Research Building M

Plainsboro, NJ, USA

This facility houses two Massachusetts Department of Public Health (MDPH) bureaus: the Bureau of Infections Disease and Laboratory Sciences and the Bureau of Climate and Environmental Health. Both provide critical services for epidemiologic investigation, disease prevention, testing and screening for the Commonwealth.​A primary goal of this project was to ensure that the Tower will continue to support the essential work of these bureaus in the near and long term, recognizing that it is the only facility in the state that performs tests for rabies, arboviruses, botulism, pandemic strains of influenza and is the only laboratory in the state that can adequately test for chemical and biological agents of terrorism.
