Background
Architecture
CUBRIC was established in the Cathays Park campus of Cardiff University in 2006, and moved to a new building in the Maindy Park campus in June 2016. The new building was constructed on old railway land, with the railway aiding in the delivery of the larger scanners. It cost £44,000,000, partially funded by Cardiff University, and partially by the Welsh Government. It was officially opened by Queen Elizabeth II on 7 June 2016.
