Episode description

Tod Williams and Billie Tsien are the architects responsible for designing what was formerly the Neurosciences Institute (NSI); the buildings now make up the Hazen Campus and serve as the focal point of The Scripps Research Institute. Listen as we talk about the history of the build, common motifs for all science buildings and the importance of afternoon tea.
