Communities in Bicol will soon access on-the-spot water testing as the Department of Science and Technology-Bicol (DOST-Bicol) launched LabMove, the first Mobile Laboratory for water potability in the entire DOST system, at the 2025 Regional Science, Technology, and Innovation Week in Bicol (2025 RSTW in Bicol).
The LabMove Project marks a major step in DOST-Bicol’s ongoing mission to deliver science, technology, and innovation for maximum social and economic benefit. It is designed to provide on-site chemical and microbiological testing services, particularly to geographically isolated, disadvantaged, and underserved areas (GIDAs) in the region.
