    About Us


    Bar Harbor:


    The Jackson Laboratory's 43-acre scenic Bar Harbor campus is nestled between the Gulf of Maine and the mountains of Acadia National Park.

    Some of the best hiking and biking in the world (over 50 square miles of mountains, lakes, views, and dramatic coastline) is accessible from our campus.

    We are one mile from downtown Bar Harbor, which offers a vibrant downtown district with a plethora of restaurants, shops, museums, and galleries.


    Ellsworth:
    The Charles E. Hewett Center in Ellsworth, Maine, is a state-of-the-art facility that serves researchers world wide.

    The facility represents the culmination of nine decades of unmatched experience and leadership in breeding and caring for laboratory mice.

    Ellsworth, Maine, is one of Maine's fastest growing cities.

    With a growth rate of nearly 20%, Ellsworth is a bustling year-round community and acts as a hub for surrounding towns.

    It is located nearby Acadia National Park and hosts numerous special events, concerts and festivals each year. Residents have access to fabulous shopping, recreation, museums, galleries, and dining at a variety of independent restaurants.

    Farmington:
    JAX Genomic Medicine is transforming medicine by improving patient care, lowering costs, and increasing life span and health span.

    JAX Genomic Medicine's research focuses on the complex genetic causes of disease and on the development of genomic solutions tailored to each person's unique genetic makeup.

    JAX Genomic Medicine sits on a 17-acre site on the campus of the University of Connecticut Health Center. The 183,500-square-foot facility opened in the fall of 2014. Now, it houses over 300 biomedical researchers, technicians, and support staff in state-of-the-art computing facilities and laboratories.
    In Connecticut, JAX resides in the scenic town of Farmington, in the state's capitol region.

    The Hartford region, which offers some of the best public schools in the country, is made up of both bigger cities and smaller, charming historic New England towns.

    Outdoor activities are plentiful:
    Boating, white water rafting, and riding the scenic bicycle trails are popular.

    Housing and other costs of living are more affordable in Sacramento and its surrounding suburbs than in most other neighboring areas in the North Bay, making Sacramento one of the hottest housing markets in the country year after year.
