After finishing the story so far and picking up some quests from the robot, when I returned to the lab, the door was closed and locked. I have no way into the lab and am unable to spend research points or get more quests.

you'll be able to enter the lab through the abandoned anthill and you'll be able to jump back in right next to burgle and you should be able to press a yellow button to unlock a door

I restarted the game, and the door has stayed open for me. The path from the anthill seems very much 1 way; there's a cliff that you can't get over without building inside the cave, then once you're in the room, you need to build again to get to the window, except you're stuck in deep water. It doesn't seem like an entrance as much as it's an exit.

To add some further detail:
I also noticed that all the damage from the explosion was gone. It was as if the area reverted to before the quest was done. In this new game, the door stays open and the explosion's effects are still present.

That happened to me as well, so I loaded an earlier save and so far it hasn't happened again. I wonder if there is a proximity trigger somewhere that might be the cause, as there were a few different areas I explored prior to finding the lab locked.

@Toxic it doesnt allow me to build inside the anthill. Just to be sure we are talking about the same place, as you go in, there are 3 ants in it. One alone and 2 at the end of the anthill, right?

I can't build inside the hill either. So.. I guess it's going to be bye, bye Grounded. I'm not restarting after just spending 30+ hrs building a very nice base that I wasn't even done with. :(

This video shows you how to get back in but the door will always be locked. 

oh BTW if you wear full ant armour the Ants ignore you
