About Research Join as a Researcher Community Sessions + Events Book a Visit
Lifefabs is an interdisciplinary community biofabrication lab
operating at the intersection of biodesign, healthcare, nature,
technology + society.
The Lifefabs co-lab space is a collaborative playground, providing creatives, scientists and communities access to research facilities, while facilitating organic exchanges of knowledge and ideas.
Establising alternative materials, production models, technologies and values, Lifefabs bridges tools + creative thinking from outside science and medicine, where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
Lifefabs institute is comprised of interdisciplinary research groups, themes and projects,
working collaboratively to
transform new ideas.

Join us in the co-fabrication studio - and start a project!
Studio members receive access to Lifefabs facility, equipment and basic training from
our team. While wider community members can book a walk-in to come and develop a project or their biofabrication skills.
Feel free to reach out if you have a research idea - or if you’d like to bring your expertise to an existing community research project. Open community research projects are designed to enable interdisciplinary collaboration, mutual learning and skill sharing between members. We are specificially interested in supporting projects oriented towards healthcare, biodesign, society + technology.
Applications for membership are reviewed on a rolling basis - after receiving your responses, one of our team will reach out to schedule a meeting and lab walk through.

At Lifefabs our mission is to foster a safe and inclusive community where all people can learn, create and meaningfully fabricate with the life sciences. As Biodesign becomes the next innovation frontier, our goal is to ensure that all persons can explore and participate in this emerging field.
We believe that it is our responsibility to ensure the broadest community possible has access to the creative arts and STEM opportunities - and run a range of creative and engaging events across schools, community centres and festivals in and around London.
Follow us on to keep up with our next school workshops, kids camps + events.
