The FNL is a Government-Owned Contractor-Operated (GOCO) Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC) located at Fort Detrick, Maryland. The FNL partners with university, government, and corporate scientists to speed the translation of laboratory research into new diagnostic tests and treatments for cancer and AIDS.

With a unique array of advanced technologies, the Frederick National Lab focuses on bridging the gap between discovery and healthcare delivery; accelerating the development of new technologies and prototype treatments for patients; and paving the way for new advances to enter clinical trials for testing, approval, and delivery to patients via the commercial sector. A significant portion of the OTS prime contract with SAIC-Frederick includes the responsibility for operating the FNL facility and procuring services and products in support of the FNL.
