Lab Design & Space Planning

Transform Any Room Into a Functional CMA Genetic Testing Lab

Clinical Lab Space Design for CMA Workflows

AutismLabSetup.com specializes in designing CMA-ready laboratory spaces for Autism Centers, ABA clinics, developmental pediatricians, pediatric neurologists and early intervention programs across the United States.

Whether you have a small 200 sq ft room or a larger multi-zone area, we create professional, efficient and workflow-correct lab designs that support accurate Chromosomal Microarray (CMA) testing.

Our design approach focuses on workflow separation, organization and room efficiency, allowing your staff to run CMA testing confidently and consistently.

Your space does not need to start as a lab, we help transform it into one.

Professional Lab Space Planning

We design genetic testing environments that support clean, efficient CMA workflows.
Our space planning services include:

Room Layout and Zoning

We outline the best way to structure your available space, specifically mapping:

  • Pre-analytical zone

  • Analytical workflow area

  • Post-workflow organization

  • Sample handling pathways

  • Storage and supply placement

  • Staff movement optimization

Your final plan minimizes contamination risk and promotes operational consistency.

Equipment Placement Guidance

We provide structured equipment placement recommendations based on:

  • workflow efficiency

  • staff roles

  • movement patterns

  • accessibility

  • pre- and post-process separation

This helps your lab maintain a clean, predictable environment for CMA testing.

Space Optimization for Small Rooms

Many Autism Centers do not have extra lab facilities and that’s okay.
We specialize in designing CMA workflows for:

  • converted offices

  • unused treatment rooms

  • open workspaces

  • administrative spaces

  • repurposed clinical areas

We ensure the room supports efficient CMA operations even when space is limited.

Utility, Storage & Functional Layout

Your lab layout includes recommendations for:

  • cabinetry and storage

  • countertop configuration

  • sink placement (if available)

  • power needs

  • lighting considerations

  • workspace width & clearances

  • supply organization

Each element supports the operational flow of CMA testing.

Future Expansion Planning

Even if your center only performs CMA testing today, we help design your space to support future testing workflows such as:

  • PCR

  • additional molecular panels

  • expanded diagnostics

  • multi-zone workflow expansion

Your space can grow with your diagnostic goals.

Why Lab Design Matters for CMA Testing

A well-planned lab layout provides:

  • smoother workflows

  • minimized contamination risk

  • better staff coordination

  • easier training

  • organized work patterns

  • reduced re-runs

  • faster turnaround times

CMA Lab

A CMA lab is more than equipment, it is the physical environment that makes reliable testing possible.

Overhead City Roads
