COMPUTATION IS CHANGING
THE NATURE & PROCESS
OF RESEARCH
Computation, large dataset analysis, and
robotics are changing the nature and
processes of research. These changes
have a direct impact on work modes,
space utilization, and human experience
and performance.

IT’S NOT JUST ABOUT LESS
SPACE—IT’S ABOUT BETTER,
HEALTHIER EXPERIENCE
For research, less is not more. Some of
the smartest people in the world work
in these buildings. We are gaining a
better understanding of human health/
productivity... and we need to design
buildings around those principles.

ATTRACTING THE BEST DATA
SCIENCE TALENT REQUIRES
DESIGNING A GREAT HUMAN
EXPERIENCE
The acceleration of the “drying out” of traditional
wet-bench based scientific processes provides
the opportunity to transition conventional models
of science facilities to new models of science
workplace… and allow these organizations to
compete with technology companies increasingly
interested in the same talent pool.

5. TODAY’S PRESENTATION
EVIDENCE
How is the work of science changing, and what is the impact on space?
LEARNING FROM TECH
What do neuroscience, health, environment and behaviorial science teach us about
the successes of technology workplace paradigms?
IMPLICATIONS
How can we optimize the space needs and qualitative/quantitative drivers for
computational science work going forward?
6.
7. CURRENT STATE
Does this look familiar?
When new research teams move into a building, they often adapt wet lab space for dry/computational work.
8. Less than half of life science work is done at the bench, according to a recent JLL survey.
9. DATA GROWTH
We create as much information in two days as we
did from the dawn of civilization through 2003
Ninety percent of all the data in the world
has been created in the last 2 years
10. DATA GROWTH
We can sequence 18,000 patient genomes/year…
which generates 1.8 petabytes of data.
1.8 petabytes = 1.8 million
gigabytes…or 9,000
desktop hard drives
Or about 360,000 DVDs…

25. Dr. John Medina
A growing body of primary research
shows the connnections between
environmental design, neuroscience
and behavior.
Especially in research buildings —
the “workplaces” of some of the smartest
people in the world — planners and
designers can now provide environments
and experiences which optimize mental
acuity and intellectual productivity.
To push this further, NBBJ has engaged
Dr. John Medina, a developmental
molecular biologist and research
consultant. He is an Affiliate Professor
of Bioengineering at the University
of Washington School of Medicine
and an NBBJ Fellow.

27. CONSIDERATIONS
Empirical evidence does not exist for
measuring productivity in work environments.
The best organizations recognize that
occupancy densities should be based on
enabling positive outcomes.
Dr. Salk wanted to embrace a diversity of
scientific disciplines with no departments and
allow for an unencumbered physical plan.

29. PROSPECT/REFUGE
Ngorongoro Crater
Humans evolved in settings where they could survey the terrain for
food — “prospect” — from a safe vantage point – “refuge.” Areas
that provide a balance between prospect and refuge are where
people experience the least stress and are therefore more free to
think and ideate.
30. 60% of lost workdays
each year can be
attributed to stress.
Problems at work
lead to more health
complaints than any
other stressor in the
united states – even
financial problems or
family problems.
We are most creative
and productive when
we feel safe, and our
brains feel safest when
we have a blend of
prospect and refuge.
Appleton, J. The Experience of
Landscape. New Jersey: John
Wiley & Sons Inc, 1975
In the United States,
the cost of stress
in the workplace –
absenteeism, reduced
productivity, sick leave,
etc. – was an estimated
$300 billion in 2010.

Environments." Journal of Interior

rooms (at right) subscribe to the principle of prospect-refuge.
32. SALK INSTITUTE
The studio configuration and sizing/scale of the courtyard
at the Salk Institute also follow these principles.
35. 80% of the occupants
near windows were

their environment,

stress, which increases
productivity and

36. CIRCADIAN RHYTHM
Our bodies have a master circadian clock that
regulates behavioral rhythms over an approximate
24-hour period. Circadian entrainment
(synchronization) occurs when photoreceptor
cells in the eye’s retina sense light. These cells
are of three types: rods, cones and ipRGCs.
MELATONIN is a chemical substance that
is activated in the absence of light and is
suppressed when a certain amount of light is
present.
MELANOPSIN is a protein present in retinal
ganglion cells (ipRGCs) that is activated by non-
image forming responses. It is most sensitive to
blue light

From a neuroscience standpoint, access to nature does not need to be “real" — it can
also be simulated, which produces similar positive neurological activity in the brain.
39. On average office
workers spend 76% of
their day sitting and
tend to underestimate
their time sitting.
Sitting for over 6 hours
a day for a decade
or two can cut away
about 7 years of quality
adjusted life (the kind
you want).
40. COGNITIVEBENEFIT
COGNITIVE BENEFIT OF AEROBIC EXERCISE
Aerobic exercise has been shown to boost executive function and buffer stress.
To be effective, heart rate must be higher than average heart rate when walking.

44. One of the most interesting findings
of the past few decades is that
an increase in oxygen is always
accompanied by an up-tick in
mental sharpness.
Doubling the air change rate to
reduce CO2 levels, at a cost of
$40/person, resulted in $6500
gain in productivity per person in
an office environment.

49. By relocating participants
so they were all working
in the same area, informal
communities of practice
grew up around the various
tasks involved in the
process, and the time to
complete it was cut from
17 days to 3 days.
Research shows that if
people have to walk more
than 65' to see someone,
they’ll send an email
instead. If they’re close,
they’ll walk to see each
other and communicate
in person.

54. Those employees at a
workstation with partition
heights above eye level
on two sides are seen to
be performing 11%–18%
slower than those with
all their partitions below
eye level.
Office workers were found
to perform 10%–23%
better on tests of mental
function and memory
recall when they had a view
versus those with no view.
When people look at
something they find
beautiful, a portion of the
brain called the medial
orbito-frontal cortex “lights
up” with increased blood
flow in this area. It is a
near-universal response
to beauty.
In neuro imaging studies,
“beautiful” paintings elicited
increased activity in the
orbito-frontal cortex, which
is involved in emotion and
reward. Interestingly, the
“uglier” a painting, the
greater the motor cortex
activity, as if the brain
was preparing to escape.
55. PLACE VS. SPACE
The visual environment has measurable statistics.
The natural world is filled with contours where orientation is similar.
Designers exploit these regular repeating structures (such as fractals).

1. Building Advocacy: Proof at concept.
New computational planning tools allow us
to measure, prove and/or disprove whether
planning solutions are actually producing
the desired effects. The example here is an
avatar-based software NBBJ designed for the
Samsung AHQ project, which tracks visibility
and even calories burned for users during a
typical day. For one of the first times in our
profession, we have proof of concept. We
don’t have to wait until move-in to assess
the performance of a particular planning or
design solution.
65. HOW CAN YOU DRIVE

2. Funding: Broaden utilization
studies. Consider including more
space types in your utilization studies
to get broader insights on where
people are spending most of their
time, given choice. This example
integrates GIS technology, providing
not only utilization data, but also
information on the locations in space
where people spend time.

68. TRADELINE 3
01
Computation is changing the
nature & process of research.
Computation, large dataset
analysis and robotics are
changing the nature and
processes of research. These
changes have a direct impact
on work modes, productivity
and employee experience.
02
It’s not just about less
space – it’s about healthier/
better experiences.
We are gaining a better
understanding of the
relationships between
space, behavior, health
and productivity. We can
now quantitatively measure
qualitative aspects of
experience and optimize
planning/design of
environments according to
those measures/criteria.
03
Attracting the best data
science talent requires
designing a great human
experience.
A new model for the
computational science
workplace is needed –
one that is grounded in
experience design and
enables healthy/productive
environments.
