Last year, in July, Reine Protacio’s experiments suddenly stopped working. Every scientist encounters baffling results from time to time; you chalk it up to error, repeat the experiment, and hope for ...

Science is a subject built on doing. Students learn chemistry through titrations, biology through dissections, physics through motion experiments, and earth science through field observations. That ...

A new leap in lab automation is shaking up how scientists discover materials. By switching from slow, traditional methods to real-time, dynamic chemical experiments, researchers have created a ...

It’s summer, but that doesn’t mean kids have to stop learning. Discovery Lab at the Gathering Place teaches kids science lessons through unique experiments. One is called a chemical traffic light ...

Carnegie Mellon University is working with startup Emerald Cloud Lab Inc. to build a $40 million science laboratory designed to automate lab experiments with robotics and artificial intelligence.

While many industries are being rapidly transformed by digital technologies, research laboratories, like the academic cultures that often permeate them, have been slow to change. They're plagued by ...
