FDA's Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (CFSAN) is located in the Harvey W. Wiley Federal Building in College Park, MD.  The building, completed in 2001, is an energy efficient complex providing CFSAN with 78 state-of- the-art chemistry and microbiology laboratories and 680 offices.  The unique structure of the building features 5 wings arranged around an enclosed atrium, which maximizes both space and natural light.  The Wiley Building also offers a library centrally located in the atrium, an auditorium, numerous conference rooms, computer training rooms, and a fitness center for employees.  CFSAN is located near the campus of the University of Maryland, which houses the Joint Institute for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (JIFSAN), established in 1996 to foster multidisciplinary research and education programs.  The tour will offer visitors a chance to see the new building and to learn about the mission of CFSAN.
