An innovative and modern idea comes to life as construction on the Pelotonia Research Center, formerly known as the Interdisciplinary Research Facility, is more than 90% complete. Building Inspections on the five-story laboratory building are set to be finished by March 2023. Heating, Cooling and Mechanical Piping Systems Commissioing is schedule to complete in May 2023 with opening scheduled for June. The building will serve multiple disciplines including biomedical, life sciences, engineering and environmental sciences and others.

Construction progress includes:

  • Testing piping heating and cooling
  • Furnishing the building over the next four months
  • Continued building inspections
  • Turning on Reverse Osmosis water system
  • Landscaping on Inspiration Garden

The Pelotonia Research Center envisions an innovative and modern environment to serve multiple disciplines. The project is one of the first buildings at Carmenton and will house approximately 305,000 new square feet. Two floors will be dedicated to The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center including its new Pelotonia Institute for Immuno-Oncology.
