The microbial ocean is the largest – yet least explored – natural resource on the planet. It contains a colossal reserve of biological diversity waiting to be discovered and understood. Our goal is to help conserve and responsibly use this vast and vital resource.
At Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences, we discover how ocean microbes affect – and are affected by – life on Earth. Our scientists conduct their research at our new state-of-the-art laboratory in Maine and at sea, from the Gulf of Maine to the polar regions to the deep ocean crust.
Recognized as a world leader in cutting-edge marine search, Bigelow Laboratory’s scientific discoveries play a key role in understanding the physical and biological impacts of climate change, ocean acidification, and ecosystem effects. In Maine, the Laboratory is a major contributor to the regional economy and a key training ground for young scientists and technicians.
Our services range from providing and storing algal cultures to state-of-the-art analytical services, to capabilities to replicate in situ ocean experiments. We also offer access to the world’s first single cell genomics center and complementary flow cytometry facility.
Named for Henry Bryant Bigelow, a visionary scientist and pioneer of modern oceanography, Bigelow Laboratory was founded in 1974 as a private, non-profit research institution. Henry Bigelow's approach to oceanography stressed the interdependence of the biological, chemical and physical sciences. This perspective has served as a cornerstone of our programs throughout our history.
