Detailed Description

The only way to know how indoor environments can contribute to health and well-being is to scientifically study them. As a collaboration of Delos and Mayo Clinic, the Well Living Lab brought together building science and health science to conduct this innovative research. The new venture attracted the attention of Nature, which featured the Lab in in an article called “The office experiment: Can science build the perfect workspace?”

The Lab’s unique data and building infrastructure enables human-study research in the 5,500 square-foot laboratory in Rochester, Minnesota, and soon, anywhere in the world with an internet connection, using a cloud-based, secure system. In 2019, another Well Living Lab will open in Beijing, China.

We collect and analyze thousands of data points and uncover correlations that can be applied in practical ways to provide long-term benefits to people and society.

About Beam

Community Beam (dmcbeam.org) is a registry of private and public resources (organizations, projects, initiatives, programs) that underpin economic and social developments of greater Rochester:

For the commercial sector, we tend to register startup activities (new companies and new commercial projects) that bring diversification and high-impact opportunities to the area.
For the non-profit sector, we wish to shine light on all the organizations and services that otherwise labor under relative obscurity.
Our hope is that dmcbeam.org will encourage cross-sector collaborations and creative solutions.

While there are a number of registries in the community, dmcbeam.org's distinct value is to pilot a database with a data structure and categorizations that answer the questions such as: What organizations or projects/programs in our community that have purported relevance with some of the over-arching focuses put forward by initiatives such as DMC, J2G and Health Improvements?

This database could be used as one of the ways to explore the capacities of the community. If you are someone on an exploratory journey to learn about the greater Rochester community. dmcbeam.org could be an interesting first step.
