Let's talk data. How long does it take to get from an assay to a decision? Thinking beyond the liquid handling, manual data workflows can be inefficient and time consuming. In this week's blog, I show you how automated informatics can lead to faster decision making.

The Lab Automation Device Landscape: Automation is transforming the way researchers and technicians carry out repetitive tasks from pipetting to data collection. We’ve written before about #labrobots, software, and #liquidhandlers, but what about everything else?

This week on TAL: How to Automate an R&D Lab
There is an assumption in lab automation that a process has to be locked down before it can be automated. So how does automation fit into an R&D lab?

I'm talking about #LIMS this week on my blog. See why a LIMS system is essential for any lab.

Talking about SPR and BLI in my blog post today. Would love to chat with someone experienced with biochemical assays, it's a new space for me.

Had a great time at @biocom.bsky.social’s Converge meetup. Got some good networking in and enjoyed the lightning talks about open source research tools and collaborations in #techbio

Check out my blog post this week about High Content Imaging! I'm always looking to chat or collaborate about all things Lab Automation, so feel free to reach out.

Densely vascularized thick 3D tissue shows enhanced protein secretion constructed with intermittent positive pressure - Communications Biology An air-compressing intermittent-pressure method enables the fabrication of transplantable thick tissues displaying vascularization and a high protein secretion capacity, with potential regenerative medicine applications.

Its exciting to see the potential of 3D cell culture for organ transplants. Reprogramming patient cells into iPSCs then differentiating them into organs could reduce transplant rejection rates. www.nature.com/articles/s42...

Check out this week's edition of my blog, where I debrief my #SLAS2025 experience as a freelancer.

Kinda fell off posting here 😅, but I had a great SLAS! Headed back to the bay, and ready to hit the ground running to foster the connections I made.

Day #2 of SLAS2025! Connecting with other automation engineers, vendors, and lab professionals! Really impressed with the Tecan Veya, Formulatrix Cellmatic, and Revvity Operetta!

Eating good, complements of SLAS. So far I’ve:
-Connected with Agilent and talked shop
-Met the team at Spaero, talked about making protocol scripting easier for scientists, got a demo
-Connected with Madeline Wolf, founder of The Automated Lab
-Saw talk for Cytation five and ML image analysis

Kicking off SLAS 2025 with the keynote session learning about hidden inequities in medicine with Dr. Ahmar Zaidi.

#networking with @techbio.bsky.social at Mission Brewing in San Diego. Making lots of great connections and gearing up for the first day of the #SLAS2025 conference!

Just checked in to #SLAS in San Diego. Can't wait to see the latest in #AI, #Labautomation, and #Drugdiscovery!
