Flats to rent in Camden may be ideal for researchers
Those involved in the field of biomedical research may be keen to find property to rent in the London borough of Camden, following news that permission has been given to build a huge new facility there.
London mayor Boris Johnson has announced the largest biomedical research centre in Europe will be constructed at Brill Place.
Occupying 90,000 sq ft, the centre will house 1,200 researchers and 300 support staff, with Cancer Research UK, the Wellcome Trust, Medical Research Council and University College London all having a base there.
Mr Johnson said: "This visionary new centre will become a beacon of excellence in the fight against fatal diseases, making a real difference to the treatment of patients."
He added it could also help to establish London as a "global centre for medical research".
Recent figures from Camden Council reveal why it could be best to rent in the borough, with the average house price there being £534,531 - 3.2 times the national average.
