Being net-zero for electrical energy, the Institute will actually produce as much electricity on-site as it consumes annually.<\/p>\n<p>The facility, built to advance genomic research, was designed to house roughly 125 scientists and staff, whose focus on genomic research includes work in synthetic biology; sampling and analysis of the world\u2019s oceans, fresh water and soils to better understand the microbes living in these environments; and new analysis on the human genome in the hopes of discovering new insights into disease prevention and treatment.<\/p>\n<p>I have to say that in terms of design, construction and sustainability, the J.
