This year’s theme

Play ball, Boston

We’re taking Labapalooza from the West Coast to Boston for 2027, and arriving right in time for opening season. Boston is a baseball town through and through, and late April sets the perfect backdrop for two days of tactical sessions, deep-dive workshops, and peer-led conversations. From the bench to the budget, we’re tackling every facet of modern lab operations so you can cover all your bases.

Celebrate lab ops

Celebrate your home runs

Lab ops is the work behind every experiment: the orders placed, the freezers stocked, and the problems solved before anyone notices. Labapalooza is where we celebrate all that you do behind the scenes to keep the lab running, including our big party on Tuesday night.
