Time is precious, and so are your samples. Automating the nucleic acid isolations in your human microbiome research can minimize bias while freeing up your lab group's hands (and brains) for more important work. From versatile robots to high throughput machines to affordable instruments, automation is suited for every type of lab. Join our speakers as they explore the different instruments available to automate nucleic acid isolations for human microbiome research. See how these instruments can help reduce bias, increasing the consistency and reliability of your isolations. Our speakers will also review automation best practices and explain which instruments are the most suited for your laboratory and work style.
