Designing a world-class research facility requires careful planning, right down to the exhaust systems. The Integrative Science Complex (ISC) at the Univ. of Oregon, Eugene, is a unique approach to scientific research and technology problem solving, by bringing together scientists and researchers with different specialties and disciplines. Because of the nature of the research equipment at ISC, even the choice of a laboratory workstation exhaust system was critical to the success of the facility.
