Technology Park facilities
Many Muresk staff members are based at Technology Park in Building 610, which is known as the Brodie-Hall Building. At the rear of Building 610 is the Aquatic Science Research Centre, including the fish hatchery and other research laboratories. The new facility will have three main re-circulation systems, with the showpiece being a 60 tonne freshwater Mesocosm with viewing windows. The facility also contains post-graduate research laboratories, ecotoxicology and teaching laboratories and a fully functional marine and freshwater fish hatchery. Aquatic science research conducted at the Centre includes: freshwater, marine and inland saline aquaculture; integrated aquaculture; aquatic ecology; aquatic resource management; ecotoxicology; and aquatic polyculture. Post-graduate students work out of this facility and have computer access in Building 610. At present the Post Harvest Horticulture Laboratory is located in Enterprise Unit 4, although plans are well underway to move this facility to the Brodie-Hall Building. The Laboratory is utilised for research, with a major focus on enhancing the shelf life, quality, nutritive value and yield of horticultural crops, and solving specific post-harvest problems during storage and distribution in domestic and export markets.
