Edinburgh University KB: Ashworth 3
Ashworth 3 designed by architects Lewis & Hickey Ltd. The laboratory floors are linked at each each level to an existing neighbouring building (Ashworth 2). The fifth floor is set back under an overlapped curved roof. Plant, storage and insect rooms are housed in a basement and further plant space is located within the roof. A sustainable design to allow flexibility for future layout changes, good thermal mass in core areas, the use of natural ventilation and heat recovery and connection to a local Combined Heat and Power plant.

The Ashworth Laboratories consist of three interlinked buildings which house two Institutes of the School of Biological Sciences. These are the Institute of Evolutionary Biology and the Institute of Immunology & Infection Research. Ashworth 3 opened in 2004 and contains laboratories, meeting rooms and staff offices.

Next to Ashworth 3 is the site of the Mary Brück Building, a four-storey modular building due to open in 2015, which is currently under construction. It will provide a variety of office, study and catering spaces for the Schools of Engineering and Biological Sciences. It is being designed and built by Extraspace Solutions.

It is named after Dr Mary Brück (1925 - 2008) who was an astrophysicist and lecturer at the university who inspired many students and members of the public. In retirement she championed the contribution of women to her subject.
The King's Buildings campus of the University of Edinburgh is home to most of the university's science and engineering schools. Purpose built site named after King George V.
