The Well Living Lab, a collaboration of Delos and Mayo Clinic,
draws upon the expertise of building science and health science and
conducts human subject studies in a simulated real-world setting in
which environmental variables are altered to monitor impact on
health, performance, stress and resiliency, sleep and comfort. It
is the first research center devoted exclusively to this field of
study. The lab has 5,500 square feet of reconfigurable space,
currently set up to study occupants of apartments and open office
environments. Since its inception in 2016, the lab has conducted
seven studies, with more underway.
“We are committed to understanding how the connections between
our everyday living spaces impact our overall health,” says Brad
Graves, vice president 3M Stationery and Office Supplies Division.
“This alliance with the Well Living Lab will help us understand
more deeply how to improve our consumers' lives both at work and at
home.”
As an alliance member, 3M will have access to emerging health
insights and trends with the Well Living Lab studies, which can be
leveraged in new product innovation and are based on scientific
findings. 3M will also enjoy networking and knowledge-sharing
benefits, such as member-only educational webinars, an annual
summit in conjunction with Mayo Clinic’s International Transform
conference, and an annual showcase and early insights from
studies.
“We look forward to the leadership and expertise that 3M will
bring to advancing this movement to improve indoor environments,
where most people now spend approximately 90 percent of their
lives,” says Brent Bauer, M.D., Mayo Clinic, medical director of
the Well Living Lab. “Alliance members bring unique perspectives,
and we have a powerful community coming together.”
The Well Living Lab Alliance aims to partner with companies that
want to help generate new knowledge and interact with lab experts
from a wide range of scientific, medical and technical backgrounds.
