DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application proposes construction of the Procedural and Behavioral Housing Suites (PBHS), a 5,215 sq. ft. vivarium expansion in the BRC at the UC- Irvine College of Medicine. Partially completed and under phased construction, the BRC is planned as a four building, 200,000 sq. ft. complex dedicated to interdisciplinary research in the areas of neuroscience, cancer, genetics, immunology, and infectious disease. Biomedical research by current faculty and those under recruitment relies heavily on animal research, creating an urgent need to increase vivarium space for PBHS. The project would expand the existing 12,320 sq. ft. Gillespie Vivarium and connect the underground vivarium complex to the four BRC buildings (one operational, two under construction, and one planned). The PBHS would consist of three suites, each efficiently combining rooms of three basic types: 1) procedure rooms; 2) behavioral testing rooms; and 3) rodent holding rooms. The construction also would include a smaller three-room Gillespie Vivarium Extension (one housing room, one behavioral testing room, and an anteroom). The procedure and behavioral testing rooms have been designed to allow conversion into animal housing or a different mix of testing and procedure rooms. There is an architectural option to convert one or more of the suites into barrier facilities if need arises. Temporary procedure and testing rooms would be released to revert to their original purpose of animal housing. The application identifies a group of PHS-funded faculty members who would use the PBHS to advance biomedical knowledge in areas important to the nation's health.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请建议建造程序和行为住房套房（PBHS），5，215平方米。英尺在加州大学欧文分校医学院的BRC中进行的动物饲养场扩建。 BRC已部分完工，并正在分阶段建设，计划为四栋建筑，200，000平方米。英尺致力于神经科学、癌症、遗传学、免疫学和传染病领域的跨学科研究。 目前的教师和那些正在招聘的生物医学研究在很大程度上依赖于动物研究，创造了迫切需要增加PBHS的动物园空间。 该项目将扩大现有的12，320平方米。英尺吉莱斯皮动物园，并连接地下动物园复杂的四个BRC建筑（一个运行，两个正在建设中，一个计划）。 PBHS将由三个套间组成，每个套间有效地结合了三种基本类型的房间：1）手术室; 2）行为测试室; 3）啮齿动物收容室。 该建筑还将包括一个较小的三室吉莱斯皮动物园扩建（一个住房室，一个行为测试室，和一个前厅）。 程序和行为测试室的设计允许转换为动物房或不同的测试和程序室组合。 如有需要，可在建筑上选择将一个或多个套房改建为屏障设施。 将释放临时程序和试验室，以恢复其动物饲养的原始目的。 该应用程序确定了一组公共卫生服务资助的教职员工谁将使用PBHS推进生物医学知识的重要领域，以国家的健康。
