Yale's Peabody Museum, still closed for renovations, set to open in 2024.
A new lab and classroom building that will be nearly as large as Yale’s football stadium — at least in terms of square footage — is in the works for East Rock’s “Science Hill,” while a new hub for Yale’s performing arts is planned for a university-owned downtown corner.
Those are two of Yale’s largest new development projects slated for the years ahead, as announced in a recent building update sent out by one of the local Ivy Leaguer’s top officials.

Metropolitan Business Academy 11th-grader Neiel Ventura at DAE.
High school junior Neiel Ventura took a chance on a new after-school computer science program in Fair Haven. Months later, Ventura has set her sights on a career goal in technology and has cultivated the skills to support it — and built her own website designed to sell sneakers.
If a new subvariant were to have created a new Covid-19 outbreak, it probably would have shown up by now in the wastewater — and it hasn’t, according to the man who checks.

Jordan Peccia stopping on morning run from the harbor.
The word on Water Street Tuesday was … water.
Waste water, to be exact. In the puddles outside of Cody’s Diner, where Yale Professor of Chemical & Environmental Engineering Jordan Peccia was getting his morning feta cheese fix. And in the sewage helping Peccia put out the good word that the Covid-19 Omicron variant is continuing to fade.

That big “Alexion” sign at the top of the 100 College St. tower?
It may soon read “AstraZeneca” instead, as the Cambridge-based drugmaker took one big step closer to a $39 billion takeover of the Boston-based biopharmaceutical company — with plans to keep Alexion’s 500 local workers in place. For now.
“Are there any volunteers at home who want to do this problem?” said New Haven Academy biology teacher David Herndon, addressing the portion of his class tuned in via computer. “Don’t all jump at once.”
His in-person students giggled.
Herndon switched his attention back to the physical classroom — and, like high school teachers all over New Haven, navigated a new normal of teaching two types of classes at once: Remote, and in-person.
Construction should begin in June on a planned new 10-story, 500,000 square-foot bioscience lab and office tower slated to be built atop the former Route 34 Connector downtown.
Chasing the brain: Yale neuroscience team at work.
Pumped: Inaugural neuroscience institute chief Nicholas Turk-Browne appearing Wednesday on WNHH FM’s “Dateline New Haven.”
Inside a College Street tower, a soon-to-open institute will set inquiring minds to explore questions with implications for how human beings live in the future. Like:
• When are we responsible for our actions? • What can the human brain do that machines can’t? • How should we co-exist with machines? • How can we best teach our kids? • How do we come up with ideas? • And … what’s the pope’s phone number?
