The Life and Mind Building has the potential to change the world. When work got underway in 2021, it was the largest building project the University had ever undertaken. On track to open in 2025, it will significantly enhance the way that psychological and biological sciences are undertaken in Oxford, helping researchers from around the world to solve some of our major global challenges. It will be home to the University's Department of Experimental Psychology and Department of Biology.
Funding and delivery of the building are being undertaken in partnership with Legal & General.
