Wendell Stanley joined the Berkeley faculty in 1948 at the peak of his scientific career.
It was partly to pursue this interest in viruses as biological macromolecules that Stanley left the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research to found the Virus Laboratory on the Berkeley campus and to build a new free-standing Department of Biochemistry that was not beholden to a medical or agricultural school.
Stanley's move to the University of California afforded him the opportunity to assemble a group of young scientists practicing the latest physical and chemical techniques for virus studies.

Wendell Meredith Stanley, then Chair of the Biochemistry Department and Director of the Virology Laboratory, desired the two units to be in close proximity to each other for the cross-pollination of ideas.
Stanley will contain laboratories for faculty in the College of Letters and Science and classrooms as it always has, but with three times the floor space, the new building will include as well laboratory space for faculty in the College of Chemistry and the College of Engineering.
According to Stanley construction site project manager Robert Bluhm, "The facility will be an architectural example of the new paradigm for interdisciplinary research, providing exceptionally flexible and modular laboratories for constantly evolving teams and initiatives." With the concept of interdisciplinarity extended into the architecture, scientists will be in close proximity to researchers from different fields.

Wendell Meredith Stanley was a Spanish-American biochemist, who received (with John Northrop and James Sumner) the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1946 for his work in the purification and crystallization of viruses, thus demonstrating their molecular structure.
This work began in 1935 when Stanley crystallized tobacco mosaic virus, the first such purification of a virus.
He then believed, incorrectly, that protein was the active agent of the virus.

Demolition of the half-century-old former Biochemistry and Virus Laboratory Building — subsequently renamed for Wendell Stanley, the late Nobel Prize winner who joined the Berkeley faculty in 1948 — shifted into high gear on April 3 when colorfully nicknamed pieces of construction equipment started taking massive bites out of it.
The new Stanley Hall — slated for completion in 2006 — will contain some 40 laboratories housing faculty on the cutting edge of bioscience resarch, investigating areas such as imaging, structural biology, computational and theoretical biology, and tissue engineering.
The total budget for the project (more properly named the Stanley Biosciences and Bioengineering Facility) is about $162 million, a combination of state and private funds designated in 2000.

Noyes, however, urged Adams to offer Wendell M. Stanley a teaching assistantship because he had great faith in the Earlham professor's recommendation of Stanley and of other applicants before him.
Twenty years later, Wendell Stanley shared the Nobel Prize for research on the structure of the tobacco mosaic virus.

 Publisher description for Library of Congress control number 2001035855
Focusing on the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) research conducted in Nobel laureate Wendell Stanley's lab, Creager argues that TMV served as a model system for virology and molecular biology, much as the fruit fly and laboratory mouse have for genetics and cancer research.
She examines how the experimental techniques and instruments Stanley and his colleagues developed for studying TMV were generalized not just to other labs working on TMV, but also to research on other diseases such as poliomyelitis and influenza and to studies of genes and cell organelles.
The great success of research on TMV also helped justify increased spending on biomedical research in the postwar years (partly through the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis's March of Dimes)--a funding priority that has continued to this day.
