Lab workflows are constantly evolving to handle higher throughput demands, increased efficiency, and more complex tasks. For some, that means allowing automation to play a bigger role in the lab. Whether talking about one liquid handler, or a modular system of multiple instruments, the role of automation in streamlining workflows is increasing. Many agree that automation affords scalability and offers more accuracy in lab work. However, there are challenges in the automation field as well.
On this episode of GEN Live, we will discuss the role of automation now and what the future looks like. Among the topics we will discuss: What is the role of AI in automating complex biological systems? What are the ethical concerns in the field? Can automation be scaled without compromising quality?
A live Q&A session will follow the presentation, offering you a chance to pose questions to our expert panelists.
