Wonderful new shared lab equipment/space and a very detail oriented, attentive staff. If you are in Orange County and looking for lab/office space I highly recommend ULP.
ULP is truly a supportive and success-enabling lab incubator with innumerable resources available to its tenants, and often at discounted prices. The staff are very friendly, hard working, and dedicated.
I really enjoy my time working here. The facility is nice, staffs are super friendly and supportive. They also have lots of helpful resources, workshops, events.
They answer most if not all your questions. Needless to say they take care of their residents.
The staff are so welcoming and helpful. The staff work so hard to ensure that residents find what they need at any time to get the work done. Best of all, ULP hosts and celebrate many great events that brings so much joy to your busy work day.
The facilities and startup environment make it a very productive and exciting space to be in. The staff are incredibly helpful in supporting resident companies' work and equipment needs and organize many fun events onsite. It's motivating to come to work at a place where so many innovative companies and individuals are working on solutions to challenges in the biomedical field.
We have access to equipment that is difficult to find in a shared facility. In contrast to other common facilities at ULP, equipment and spaces are always available.
