Experiment coding and orchestration challenges in real self-driven organic chemistry
Workflow complexity is a key issue in lab automation. Coding experiments and organizing operations in a self-driven lab for organic synthesis is not simple because workflows are usually specific and can evolve dynamically according to chemical events, such as precipitation or changes in viscosity. In this webinar, we will present some strategies we are developing at the Swiss Cat+ West Hub at EPFL to address this complexity.
This webinar was originally hosted by the Community for Analytical Measurement Science (CAMS) as part of FutureLab: Chemistry in the Digital Age Online Webinar Week. To learn more about CAMS, visit CAMS-UK.
Presenter: Dr. Pascal Miéville (Principal Enterprise Fellow at the University of Southampton)
Dr. Pascal Miéville has a background in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, specializing in hyperpolarized NMR. After spending several years in the pharmaceutical industry, he took over the NMR platform at EPFL in Lausanne. He then became the leader and senior research and teaching associate of the Swiss Cat+ West Hub, an automated, data-driven laboratory for homogeneous catalysis discovery and optimization. He also teaches laboratory automation and structural analysis to chemistry students at EPFL and acts as a senior consultant for digital chemistry in industry.
