Facilities
Collaboration spans Draper’s locations and is supported by a range of resources. Informal and formal collaboration spaces are found throughout Draper’s Cambridge headquarters, from the Atrium to open-floor plan work spaces to laboratories, in support of our team approach to working. Draper upgrades its laboratory facilities on a cycle to keep them state-of-the-art to support advanced technology development.

Synthetic Bio Lab
The laser scanning microscope is a confocal system that allows scientists to capture high magnification images of their biological samples. Typically, samples are tagged with fluorescent proteins, which can be imaged for discreet detection of structural and functional markers. This is located at Draper’s headquarters in Cambridge, Mass.
