this is actually incredible
a cloud lab for biology that runs your experiment via API in minutes, instead of spending $20k on automation engineers, six weeks of setup, or building a wet lab at all
soon a solo founder will wake up, send 1,000 drug screens from their laptop over coffee, and have clean experimental data back before lunch. no PhD, no pipette, no lab coat
the future is finally starting to look like the future
Cristian Ponce (@c_m_ponce): Automating the lab bench is the best thing we can do for AI in biology.
Most experiments are still run by hand. Every biologist’s handiwork is unique and every lab is a little different. So, biology faces widespread reproducibility issues.
But, AI will demand more reproducible
