Location & Directions to the Biosearch Facility
The Biosearch facilities have a panoramic view of a protected open space lagoon fed by Novato Creek, and adjacent to San Pablo Bay, which is the northernmost body of water in the Bay Area. We currently occupy 60,000 square feet of space, and maintain state-of-the-art instrumentation and manufacturing capabilities. We currently have two locations in Novato:
| Main Office: 81 Digital Drive Novato, CA 94949-5728 | 51 Digital Drive Novato, CA 94949-5728 |
