Synthetic biology and artificial intelligence naturally converge in the biofoundry. Navigating the ethical and societal issues of the biofoundry's potential remains a major challenge.
Despite recent breakthroughs in machine learning, current artificial systems lack key features of biological intelligence. Whether the current limitations can be overcome is an open question, but critical to answer, given the implications for society...
Microinjection into single cells in brain tissue is a powerful technique to study and manipulate neural stem cells. However, such microinjection requires expertise and is a low-throughput process. We developed the "Autoinjector", a robot that utilize...
Machine learning systems are increasingly applied in health care and the life sciences with great potential for cancer diagnostics and optical microscopy.
The internet of things is arriving at the laboratory, connecting instruments for remote control and monitoring. Along with Artificial Intelligence Software to analyse data and design experiments, it could fundamentally change the way research is done...
