San Diego

San Diego has a long history with the life sciences industry and laboratory design; is home to the architectural lab icon, The Salk Institute; and is currently the third largest life science cluster in the United States. San Diego set the bar with laboratory building design in the 1960’s and has maintained it for over 50 years. With a perfect climate supporting active lifestyles, San Diego is a home to world-class academic research and development institutes which serve as the headwaters to a thriving industry of biotech, pharmaceutical, medical device, research tools, and industrial biotechnology companies.

The goals of the I2SL San Diego Chapter:
