University College Cork (UCC) has lodged a planning application to double the size of the Tyndall National Institute by redeveloping a major site on Cork's North Mall and building a new bridge crossing the River Lee.
The university said the planned new research centre will allow Tyndall to rapidly transition from research into prototyping and manufacturing of various technologies.
