Research activities are supported by a fully equipped state-of-art BSL-2 research laboratory, a vivarium, access to companion and small and large domestic animals on campus and terrestrial and aquatic species off campus as well as opportunities for potential collaborative research activities with non-human primate contract laboratories in the local community. A new Research and Pathology building was inaugurated in 2018 creating 13,000 sq ft of research space, including eight laboratories. The site features 2,000 sq ft dedicated to pathology, including autopsy and histology suites, a multiheaded microscopy room for 10 observers along with a student viewing gallery and space for small group meetings. The research and pathology sections of the building were designed to BSL-2 biosafety standards. Watch a *video tour of our facilities* here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRQDoPypkrQ.
