Automation / robotics

Robotics & Automation 2022 will take place from 30 November to 1 December 2022, at Festo, Esslingen, Stuttgard. The meeting is jointly organised by SLAS and ELRIG UK, and will focus on the application and interaction of robotics and automation in the traditional biological and chemical spaces, as well as the physical challenges of how […]

A new system utilising artificial intelligence (AI), ‘building-block’ chemistry and a molecule-making machine could speed up innovation and drug discovery, as well as make complex chemistry automated and accessible. Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign and collaborators in Poland and Canada doubled the average yield of a special, hard-to-optimise type of reaction linking carbon […]

Markus Gershater, CSO and Co-Founder of Synthace discusses how technologies such as AI and automation are helping advance biotech and drug discovery.  On June 5th, 1833, Charles Babbage presented a small working part of his “Difference Engine No 1” to a group of interested onlookers. Sitting in the audience was Ada Lovelace, a tack-sharp 17-year-old mathematician. Fascinated by […]
