Lab Automation and Bioinformatics

Intelligent automation is continuously developing. Many industries are able to streamline their processes and become more efficient by utilising the power of AI and robotics. Laboratory automation is supported by a system comprised of computer hardware and software, conveyor systems, machinery and robotics and can be beneficial for processes such as recording data, high throughput screening and testing.

Bioinformatics is the use of technology to obtain, store and analyse biological data on a large scale. Through a combination of biology, computer science, maths and physics, complex biological information can be interpreted to give us a deeper understanding of human health.

This page serves as a hub for the latest news and research on lab automation and bioinformatics. Here, you will find information on bioinformatics tools, genomic sequencing, ways of using automated equipment in the lab and many other topics.
What is Intelligent Automation?
