Facilities
The headquarters of the CNLM are located in the Herklotz Research Facility on the UC Irvine main campus in Orange County, California. This is the home of the CNLM administrative offices and conference facilities, as well as the laboratories and offices of several faculty members of the Center. The research complex, consisting of the Bonney Research Laboratory and the Qureshey Research Laboratory, comprises almost 40,000 square feet of dedicated space. The buildings are located near the UCI Science Library and the laboratories and facilities of the School of Biological Sciences.

The Bonney Research Laboratory
The Bonney Research Laboratory (BRL), built by the campus in 1981, was designed specifically as a state-of-the-art facility for the study of brain and memory, and contains laboratories, offices and a small conference room.
The Qureshey Research Laboratory
The Qureshey Research Laboratory (QRL), completed in 1997, contains laboratories, offices and a large conference center. Funds for building the Qureshey Research Laboratory were raised by the CNLM, exclusively from private sources, the first research building so funded in the UC system.
Dale Melbourne Herklotz Conference Center
The 120-seat Dale Melbourne Herklotz Conference Center is well-equipped for scientific meetings and is the site of many colloquia and workshops organized by the CNLM. The Herklotz facility is synonymous with excellence at the CNLM. With its elegant style and intimate atmosphere, this facility is at the core of the Center’s research and education mission. It is in this very room that our graduate students become doctors, our investigators and speakers from all around the world inspire each other, and our research career trajectories are shaped.
Weinberger Room
The Weinberger Room is a small conference room and has a center table for ten people. There are side chairs for extra seating, white board, monitor, small sink and side table.
UC Irvine Behavioral Testing Core
The UC Irvine Behavioral Testing Core (BTC), located in the basement of Biological Sciences 3, is a new, interdisciplinary, state-of-the-art, high-throughput core facility, equipped with a variety of cutting edge equipment as well as video monitoring and recording capabilities ensuring rigorous and reproducible testing of rodent behavior.
The facilities of the CNLM were named in recognition of generous gifts from John C. Herklotz, Robert and Meryl Bonney, Safi and Anita Qureshey and Audrey Schneiderman. Other major donors have been recognized with the naming of laboratories and meeting space in the Center buildings. Naming opportunities are still available at several levels.
