MobileLab

What is MobileLab?

The MobileLab is a forty-foot traveling science laboratory whose mission is to increase community access to modern-day biotechnology.  It is specially designed for grade 7-12 teachers and their students to participate in hands-on laboratory investigations.  The MobileLab staff work closely with participants during the laboratory sessions.  The MobileLab is completely self-contained, providing state-of-the-art laboratory facilities.  The MobileLab is wheelchair accessible.  We are currently awaiting approval to reopen scheduling of the MobileLab post-COVID.
