The Biosciences Institute at Trinity College Dublin was officially opened by An Taoiseach Enda Kenny on 17th June 2011.

RKD Architects designed the 11-storey, 35,000sq.m. facility on Dublin’s Pearse Street as part of Trinity College Dublin’s “Pearse Corridor Development”.

“This institute will help sustain Ireland’s position as an international leader in biomedical research,” Kenny said. “I am highly impressed by the enormous contribution Trinity’s bioscience researchers have already made to the improvement of human health and I am certain that this institute will be at the heart of further ground-breaking discoveries, with national and global impacts.”

The facility combines world-leading academic and scientific research with new commercial and social spaces and improved access to public transport at Pearse Train Station.
