MdBioLab serves as a mobile laboratory on wheels -- a modified tractor trailer outfitted with research-grade laboratory equipment just for students. It provides advanced educational programs in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) to high school students and teachers, and an independent study has found it provides statistically measurable benefits of increased content knowledge and student engagement in STEM. This mobile teaching lab provides interactive laboratory programs to schools with no facilities from which to offer a hands-on education in bioscience in an engaging format much like the TV show "CSI." It is through hands-on learning that students truly enjoy the educational experience, excel and continue onto careers in the STEM fields, which ultimately means jobs and economic growth for Maryland. MdBioLab is celebrating a decade of service to 100,000 students from every county in Maryland. To learn more visit or watch a video about MdBioLab by .
