A Self-Evolving Agentic System for Automated Generation and Execution of Biological Protocols

arXiv:2606. 31763v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autonomous wet-lab experimentation requires more than plausible protocol text: biological intent, quantitative procedures, device constraints and experimental feedback must remain aligned from protocol and SOP design to code and physical execution.

AEGIS: Assay-Aware Protocol Validation and Runtime Monitoring for Open-Source Liquid Handling Robots

arXiv:2607. 15620v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Self-driving laboratories increasingly rely on low-cost liquid handlers such as the Opentrons OT-2, which ship without the pressure-based aspiration monitoring of Hamilton or Tecan systems and are typically run open-loop.
