Construction of the facility that came to be named the Canadian Science Centre for Human and Animal Health (often referred to locally as "the Virology Lab") began with an official groundbreaking in December 1992.

Construction finished toward the end of 1997, with the first programs beginning in the spring of 1998 following an extensive commissioning
