Move Magic: Planning for a Successful Lab Space Transition
Successful lab transitions require more than moving equipment from one space to another. Lessons from Nationwide Children’s Hospital at the 2026 Lab Design Conference highlight how flexibility, early end-user engagement, and detailed planning can help labs prepare for growth and change
Building a Lab Around What Users Need
For Baptist Health Jacksonville’s Gwendolyn Robles, the process of planning a new central laboratory has meant challenging old assumptions, involving frontline staff, and giving the project team time to get it right
Turning Offices into Labs: Lessons from a High-Speed Conversion
As life science organizations explore office-to-lab conversions, project teams must overcome significant infrastructure, operational, and scheduling challenges. A case study from the 2026 Lab Design Conference highlights strategies for evaluating existing buildings and managing complex laboratory relocations
USGS Fisheries Research Station Prepares for Move to Upgraded Facility
The relocation of a USGS fisheries research facility highlights how early planning and interagency collaboration can help maintain scientific operations during a laboratory transition
Optimizing Existing Labs for New Equipment and Workflows
As life sciences research rapidly evolves, existing laboratories require frequent, often urgent renovations, making close collaboration between designers, engineers, trade partners, and clients essential to efficiently and cost-effectively reconfigure lab spaces to meet changing scientific needs
Lab Design Conference Speaker Profile: Aimee McKinney
At the 2026 Lab Design Conference in Orlando, Aimee McKinney will share lessons from real-world laboratory relocations and discuss strategies for planning flexible, efficient lab spaces through strong collaboration between lab users and design teams
Achieving Operational Readiness in Lab Relocation
Because venture funding is increasingly concentrated among a few companies, life sciences and medical device firms must meticulously plan lab relocations—from site selection and design through vendor coordination and downtime management—to ensure operational readiness on day one and avoid costly delays, revenue loss, and reputational damage
Lab Design Conference Speaker Profile: Jessica Scholl
At the 2026 Lab Design Conference in Orlando, Jessica Scholl of Nationwide Children’s Hospital will co-present practical strategies for successfully planning and executing laboratory relocations, drawing on lessons from real-world lab transitions to help teams create efficient, future-ready spaces
The Importance of Early Planning for Laboratory Equipment and Instrumentation
Laboratory expansions and relocations succeed only when facility planning fully accounts for the interdependence of intellectual property, people, and especially instrumentation, since overlooked equipment requirements can compromise workflows, data quality, and overall scientific productivity
