Facilities

The Campus Lab

Our campus lab is located in the Biotech building (i.e. CBIS). It houses our main lab and offices for all of our researchers.

The Aquatic Research Facility

The Rensselaer Aquatic Laboratory, located off campus at Tech Park, offers a tremendous facility for conducting aquatic experiments under a wide range of conditions...from highly controlled, indoor laboratory experiments to large, semi-natural outdoor experiments. At our peak each summer, we run the outdoor experiments using up to 900 "mesocosms" that simulate lakes, ponds, and wetlands.
