Future
In the lead up to its centenary in 2015, the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute was undergoing a significant building redevelopment. A brand new west wing was built in addition to refurbishing the existing building, delivering several levels of laboratories and scientific support services and the institute almost doubling in size. The new wing was constructed through funding made available by the Victorian Government, Commonwealth Government and The Atlantic Philanthropies. The Institute extension project was completed in May 2012.

Famous quotes containing the word future:
“It is a time when one’s spirit is subdued and sad, one knows not why; when the past seems a storm-swept desolation, life a vanity and a burden, and the future but a way to death.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“The power we exert over the future behavior of our children is enormous. Even after they have left home, even after we have left the world, there will always be part of us that will remain with them forever.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
“Autonomy means women defining themselves and the values by which they will live, and beginning to think of institutional arrangements which will order their environment in line with their needs.... Autonomy means moving out from a world in which one is born to marginality, to a past without meaning, and a future determined by others—into a world in which one acts and chooses, aware of a meaningful past and free to shape one’s future.”
—Gerda Lerner (b. 1920)
