Pipettes to Prompts Pt. 2: Coding the Lab — The Birth of Aquarium
This is an excerpt from Pipettes to Prompts — From Pipettes to Prompts: Reprogramming Science with AI (Part 2/6).
René and Yaoyu discuss the creation of Aquarium, a laboratory operating system that lets researchers design and execute experiments as code. Yaoyu explains how he helped bring software engineering discipline into wet-lab science and why reproducibility depends on good abstractions.
Tune in for insights on:
Translating experiments into executable code
The origins of lab automation at the University of Washington
Why abstraction is both engineering and art
