<title>After years of tumult, big questions remain at Trudeau Institute</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/19812/20120511/after-years-of-tumult-big-questions-remain-at-trudeau-institute</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (May 11, 2012) Today we conclude our two part investigative series on Trudeau Institute in Saranac Lake with a look at the Institute’s future.It has been a year and a half since Trudeau’s Board of Trustees voted to keep the 128-year-old biomedical research laboratory in Saranac Lake.They rejected a plan negotiated in secret that would have moved the institute to a research park under development in Florida.Since then, the institute has faced budgets cuts, layoffs and the departure of key research teams.  The lab has been without a director for nearly a year.Sources at the lab, and internal documents, suggest that Trudeau has reached a tipping point.  The institute&apos;s survival may hinge on whether it can adapt to a changing funding and scientific climate.As Chris Knight reports, Trudeau officials say they have a long-term vision, but questions and doubts remain.Editor’s note: How viable is Trudeau Institute in Saranac Lake, and how bad is morale, really? Those are some questions prompted by Chris Knight and Brian Mann’s two-part investigative series, and the reporters are working on stories to expand on those topics. They have documentation, such as an April 2011 staff satisfaction survey and studies recommending relocation and comparing sites, but they want to hear from more people inside and outside Trudeau. If you have something to say, contact Mann at brian@ncpr.org or Knight atcknight@adirondackdailyenterprise.com or 518-891-2600 ext. 24.

<title>Secret effort to move Trudeau Institute from Saranac Lake began in 2008</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/19808/20120510/secret-effort-to-move-trudeau-institute-from-saranac-lake-began-in-2008</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (May 10, 2012) Top executives and board members at Trudeau Institute in Saranac Lake worked in secret for more than two years in an effort to move the research laboratory to a new site in Florida. That’s according to an investigation by North Country Public Radio and the Adirondack Daily Enterprise.  The relocation would have shifted more than a hundred high paying jobs from Saranac Lake, a move that state officials in New York say would have been “devastating” to the local economy. As Brian Mann reports, top officials at Trudeau also worked to keep the effort secret, even from members of the lab’s own board of directors.

<title>With roots firm in Saranac Lake, Trudeau Institute looks to reorganize, grow</title>
<link>http://www.northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/17938/20110701/with-roots-firm-in-saranac-lake-trudeau-institute-looks-to-reorganize-grow</link>
<description><![CDATA[ (Jul 1, 2011) As we’ve been hearing, local leaders in Saranac Lake hope to develop the village into a biomedical hub. Back in February, the Trudeau Institute – one of the country’s top immunology labs – committed to keeping its main campus in the community.That decision, which followed weeks of controversy, left a lot of unanswered questions about Trudeau’s future. The lab faced a major budget crunch this winter which forced the organization to cut support staff. It’s also unclear how the facility can invest in the high-dollar equipment and technology needed for top-tier research.Brian Mann sat recently down to talk in-depth with David Woodland, who heads the Trudeau Institute and also leads one of its research teams. Woodland says the lab is considering a major reorganization, that could include new for-profit ventures, as well as possible construction of a new campus in Saranac Lake for other biomedical companies.
