Laboratory planning and design.
The design of the laboratory should fit the institution or setting in such a manner that it is sensitive to the needs of those who work on it and who are served by it. At the same time, the design should provide for future flexibility and growth consistent with the anticipated needs of those who use its facilities. Although it is not possible to adequately cover in this article all the possibilities in laboratory planning and design, it is hoped that a little of the basic process of laboratory design can be conveyed to the reader, with encouragement to read further.
