🧪Announcing Biomni × PyLabRobot — a step toward an AI biologist that can think, design, and execute wet-lab experiments end-to-end. See Biomni in action below 👇 Super fun collab with Retro Biosciences Rick Wierenga Serena Zhang! Learn more: biomni.stanford.edu/blog/pylabrobo…

PyLabRobot is the interface layer between The God Machine and wet labs

the ThermoFisher ATC is now supported in PLR thanks to Boqiang Tu!

are we past the inflection point?

Partial plate reading is finally supported:

the cytation firmware only supports reading perfectly rectangular subsets gen5.exe (oem software) reads the set one by one when the subset is not a perfect rectangle in PLR we find the largest rectangles contained in the subset and read those to be more efficient

we don't get paid (or supported) for this kind of work it is just in our interest to make it (we need it) and to share it (so other people contribute back) so we do it regardless, but it's in the interest of the OEM to get machines in their our hands and make us productive
