欧洲分子生物学实验室（英文：European Molecular Biology Laboratory, EMBL）创建于1974年，是一所非营利性的分子生物学研究机构，由20个欧洲国家（会员国）及澳大利亚（准会员国）资助。欧洲分子生物学实验室现有约85个独立的课题组，研究课题涵盖分子生物学的各个主要分支。该实验室在欧洲共有五处分站：位于德国海德堡的主实验室、设在英国Hinxton的欧洲生物信息研究所、以及位于法国格勒诺布尔（Grenoble）、德国汉堡（Hamburg）、以及意大利蒙泰罗通多(Monterotondo，靠近罗马)的分站。

The European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) is a molecular biology research institution supported by 21 member states, three prospect and two associate member states. EMBL was created in 1974 and is an intergovernmental organisation funded by public research money from its member states. Research at EMBL is conducted by approximately 85 independent groups covering the spectrum of molecular biology. The Laboratory operates from five sites: the main laboratory in Heidelberg, and outstations in Hinxton (the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI), in England), Grenoble (France), Hamburg (Germany), and Monterotondo (near Rome). EMBL groups and laboratories perform basic research in molecular biology and molecular medicine as well as training for scientists, students and visitors. The organization aids in the development of services, new instruments and methods, and technology in its member states.
