Life Sciences
Out-of-The-Box Thinking
Humanity owes its health and safety to the countless individuals who manage the world’s laboratories, research, and manufacturing facilities, and who help bring life-saving medicines and therapies to market.
At DPR, we build cutting-edge spaces that challenge norms and foster discovery, equipping our heroes in lab coats and Tyvek suits to change the world.
When it comes to developing the next generation of treatments, vaccines and healthcare technology, time is a precious resource—especially today. That’s why we prioritize schedule certainty, cost predictability and swift adaptability to ensure project delivery that’s as efficient as it is innovative.
Our team also recognizes that the worlds of life sciences research and patient care are increasingly intertwined. We’re building more projects with R&D labs, the capability for small scale manufacturing, and patient care spaces under one roof as the healthcare industry strives to develop new treatments faster and more effectively. We understand this “bench to bedside” approach and the growing importance of data in life sciences research.
Company
DPR has completed projects for a variety of life sciences customers, some of the most innovative and admired companies in the world.

In the Life Sciences Market
We're proud to have partnered with the nation's top-5 biotechnology and top-5 pharmaceutical companies. DPR is leading the way in building advanced Research & Development, cGMP manufacturing and individualized medicine therapeutic facilities.
We don’t just build these structures, though—we’re constantly learning and appreciating what happens inside of them, too. This grasp of evolving regulations, good lab practices, complex processes and the technology that makes it possible drives our success.
We can build state-of-the-art structures for the rest of your campus too, including office buildings, data centers, parking structures and more. We know that recruiting and retaining top scientific talent calls for modern amenities and a space that encourages collaboration. DPR has the expertise to assemble an entire campus or facility that not only puts the latest scientific technology in your hands, but makes your employees feel at home while at work.
