Austin, Texas

The University of Texas at Austin Dell Medical School Research and Medical Office Building Page is a design partner on all University of Texas buildings in the Medical Center District. In association with ZGF, Page is designing the 264,428-square-foot Research Building, the 239,373-squarefoot Medical Office Building 1 and the 1,120-vehicle, 448,054-square-foot, structured parking garage. The eight-story research building will house 97,000 square feet of wet laboratory space and 15,000 square feet of core labs. A 20,000-square-foot vivarium with expansion capabilities which includes imaging and surgery suite as well. The first floor includes full-size imaging equipment and cyclotron. The 10-story Medical Office Building 1 will be connected to the Research Building via a five-level “dry lab,” enabling collaboration and translational research among medical professionals and clinical researchers.

Bounded by Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard, Interstate Highway 35, 15th Street, and Trinity Street, the medical district was first identified in The University of Texas at Austin Campus Master Plan and was later confirmed in the recent Medical District Master Plan created by Page and Sasaki Associates. Of significance is the immediate adjacency of the proposed medical district to the existing University Medical Center Brackenridge, specifically because of the substantial investment in facilities in the Medical Center, which will continue to serve a new teaching hospital being planned. The medical district is being developed as a partnership between UT Austin, Seton Healthcare and Central Texas Healthcare. The vision for the district focuses on medical education that integrates healthcare, teaching, and research within an interdisciplinary setting, taking full advantage of adjacent university resources.

Services Provided Architecture / Design / Construction Administration / Interior Design / MEP Engineering

Based on our strong background in neurosciences, The University of Texas at Dallas recently engaged Page to refine the program, plan and design the Brain Performance Institute, an expansion of the Center for Brain Health Campus. The 60,000-sqaure-foot Brain Performance Institute is to be a next-generation and iconic facility, leveraging the successes established in research and trials at the Center for Brain Health. The BPI goal to maximize and extend brain performance for all ages is reinforced in the planning and design of the new facility. To do this requires rigorous site and adjacency analysis, along with a thorough synthesis of the BPI program initiatives and greater UT Dallas system research initiatives.

At Page, we recognize that often there is a stigma associated with learning disabilities and brain disorders. By creating an iconic facility where people with all types of brain function will go to increase brain performance, we are helping break the myths surrounding brain disorders. Our designers are prepared to create an environment that is inspiring for all users and visitors of the facility, from the young to the old, from student to veteran, and in making UT Dallas the “go-to” facility for brain performance.

In close collaboration with the UT Dallas system Page is simultaneously working on the Immersive Research and Instructional Space (IRIS) project. Project IRIS will be an advanced multi-disciplinary visualization lab for research and teaching.

Over 20 UT Dallas programs are anticipated to become users of this state-of-the-art facility, including Neurosciences, Brain and Behavioral Sciences, and Arts and Humanities.
