DAMP LAB NORTH
The mission of the DAMP Lab North is to develop small to medium scale projects, constructing novel biological systems using formal representations of protocols and experiments for the specify-design-build-test cycle. This will allow for more standard and reproducible research results that can be transitioned from academia and industry to society.
​The DAMP Lab North uses both its expertise and the Aquarium software to deliver consistent, well-documented results. These characteristics are vital to address synthetic biology-related research efforts where time, cost, and result quality are of the utmost importance. The available molecular biology protocols involve DNA assembly and purification, sequencing, transformation, PCR, among others. You can check the complete list of methodologies available at our laboratory and their capacity on the table below.

DAMP LAB SOUTH
The DAMP Lab South is a highly automated, state-of-the-art Biosafety Level 2 (BSL2) facility holding complete CLIA certifications. Historically, this space demonstrated its critical capacity by successfully conducting over 2.5 million SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) tests for the entire Boston University community between 2020 and 2023.
Currently, the DAMP Lab South offers specialized bio-cloud services focused on clinical assays, high-throughput liquid handling automation, sequencing, and RT-qPCR. Furthermore, it serves a vital function as a training ground for visiting researchers and external collaborators, providing hands-on instruction and access to high-end molecular biology automation equipment.
The Clinical Testing Lab at the DAMP lab is a CLIA certified space that was used to test the entire BU population of students, staff, and faculty for SARS CoV-2 (COVID-19) from 2020-2023.
