§ About

We are building the labs we wish existed.

Mission

Make a real bench available to anyone serious about biology.

Modern biology should not require a million-dollar incubator membership or a faculty appointment to begin. Yet the infrastructure cost of wet-lab work has barely moved while compute, sequencing, and bench reagents have collapsed in price.

AtriumLabs is a non-profit network designed to take that last bottleneck — physical, compliant lab space — and price it like the utility it is.

Principles

Cost-recovery, not profit

Every dollar above operating cost flows back into more benches and more sites.

Compliance is operated, not delegated

EH&S and biosafety are run by us so residents do not have to build a program.

Federation over headquarters

Sites stay small and local. The network provides leverage on procurement and standards.

Get involved.

We are pre-operational. The most useful thing you can do today is tell us you'd be a resident. The second most useful thing is connect us with a city, university, or facility that wants to host a site.
