Description
Tetsuwan's autonomous AI scientist is a robotic system that merges AI with modified white-label lab robots to conduct laboratory experiments independently. The system can perform high-sophistication tasks, react to data, reason, and make decisions, translating experimental protocols into automated execution. Deployed in a rare disease gene therapeutics lab.
