The new CUBRIC building is the second phase of Cardiff University’s Science and Innovation Campus at Maindy Road, the first being the Hadyn Ellis Building (HEB), also designed by IBI Group. It will house MRI scanning suites, a Magnetoencephalography (MEG) unit, laboratories, medical suite, drug trial unit, sleep laboratories and psychology testing labs, as well as office and seminar spaces.
Research at CUBRIC is focused on four inter-related research themes: Imaging Science; Neuroscience; Clinical Research; and Neuropsychiatric Genetics and Genomics. This research aims to have a direct impact on understanding human health and wellbeing, including the brain changes that lead to disordered cognition and mental health.
