Lab supply companies are a strong resource for new and improved methods and protocols using their  products. While you may use a technique a few times and struggle with the particulars of  a specific product, the companies that produce them have entire teams dedicated to problem solving.  You can save time and money by connecting with the product experts trained by their companies to answer your questions.

"I have attended the product show and it was so helpful for me to identify new products that might help me in my research, being a post doctoral scholar in Ben May department."

Get creative ideas when you take a break from your normal routine.

Getting out of the lab and away from the bench can give you a fresh perspective on your research challenges. Enjoy our high quality catered buffet, and learn about the latest developments in research science products and methods. Our tradeshows are relaxing, enjoyable and educational.

"Attending the annual BioResearch Product Faire is a good opportunity to catch up with the development of new technology and find new insight into ways of doing science. It is a good opportunity to explore new possibilities."
