The Tumour Profiling Unit consisted of the upgrade and conversion of two laboratory suites to accommodate the research teams change in use.
The change in space was minimal with only minor modifications required to the laboratories but the scientific equipment to be located in the space required an upgrade of the HVAC systems.
