We are Counter Culture Labs, a community of scientists, tinkerers, biotech professionals, hackers, and citizen scientists who have banded together to create an open community lab — a microbiology lab built in the spirit of 'hacker spaces' and 'maker spaces', supported by the community it serves to educate. Help us build a space for creative exploration and discovery; a place to innovate, learn, work on fun projects, and tinker with biology and other sciences. Help us build YOUR lab!

For far too long, science has been locked away in the “ivory towers” of universities and research labs. Silicon valley was born out of garage workshops and hobby clubs, the precursor to today’s hacker spaces. We believe that if we build a place with the tools and the community to support them, tomorrow’s great innovators in biotechnology can be born out of spaces like Counter Culture Labs.
