Apply for the New Lab Start-Up Program

The New Lab Start-Up Program gives you access to special offers that save you time and money and services to keep your lab running smoothly.

See if You Qualify

To qualify for the New Lab Start-Up Program, you must have done one of the following in the last 12 months:

Built or established a new lab
Received your first research grant
Moved to a new location

Because many non-hospital institutions have affiliations with healthcare professionals (HCPs), we need to validate that your lab’s activity, personnel, and purchasing are not considered HCPs prior to admission into the New Lab Start-Up program.

To qualify, the following must be true:

You are not a healthcare professional*
All lab personnel are not healthcare professionals
Purchasing for your lab is entirely separate from patient care, i.e. purchasing for the lab does not go through a department or team that makes purchases for areas of the institution involved in patient care
Research conducted in the lab is not connected to clinical trials, patient care, patient treatment, or patient diagnosis
