The Tinbergen Building is now closed
The University has announced the closure of the Tinbergen Building due to the presence of asbestos in certain parts of the building. We immediately want to reassure staff, students and members of the public who visit the building that we do not believe there is, or has been, a health risk to ordinary users of the building, and more than 200 air quality readings taken since September 2016 support this.
