Simple automation for everyday tasks
Time is precious. You only have a certain number of hours in a day, so how can you be more efficient? Would you love to be able to press a button and have a robot do all those tedious but critical pipette tasks?
Meet the Andrew+ pipetting robot, featuring OneLab software. This technology does it all using conventional laboratory pipettes and trcking all steps within the software. Whether you have simple or complex liquid handling tasks, invest in a flexible platform that grows with your laboratory’s ever-changing needs and methods.
Join us for a three-part webinar to hear fellow scientists share their experiences and successes with Andrew+. Learn how you can leverage automation and use Andrew+ to gain efficiencies and future-proof your methods.
Session 1 - Automating proteomics sample preparation with meso-scale robotics
- 15:00 GMT / 16:00 CET / 10:00 EST / 07:00 PST
Presenter: Matthew M. Champion (Associate Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry at Notre Dame)
Matthew M. Champion, Associate Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry, earned his B.Sc. in Microbiology at the University of Iowa and obtained his Ph.D. in biochemistry from Texas A&M University. Dr. Champion then worked in the Mass-Spectrometry-Proteomics Group at Applied Biosystems (AB Sciex). He remained there for over 6 years, and then accepted a position as a research assistant professor at the University of Notre Dame. He currently serves as an Associate Professor at Notre Dame. The Champion Laboratory specializes in microbial proteomics and metagenomics and this research focuses on the development and exploitation of novel approaches to identify and characterize the protein components from virulent microorganisms. Dr. Champion’s lab has several ongoing projects in pathogenic mycobacteria, protein translation in E. coli, and quantitative microbial separations measured using capillary electrophoresis.
Session 2 - Andrew+ the pipetting robot: Multitasking made easy
