A Celebratory Dedication for the Vagelos Laboratory for Energy Science and Technology
The opening of the 112,500-square-foot space—now home to the Vagelos Institute for Energy Science and Technology—marks the start of a new chapter in Penn’s study of energy science and the fight against climate change.
On a cold December day, the mood inside the Vagelos Laboratory for Energy Science and Technology was warm and celebratory, as some 200 people gathered to dedicate the new building named for its benefactors P. Roy Vagelos, C’50, PAR’90, HON’99, and Diana T. Vagelos, PAR’90, who were in attendance with members of their extended family.
