This two-part seminar examines the complete arc of laboratory automation—from its deep historical roots in clinical chemistry through commercial systems to the modern Do-It-Yourself approach. The first lecture examines the historical foundations of analytical chemistry applications and the compelling needs that drove the development of the automation in the laboratories. The second lecture demonstrates how open hardware and digital fabrication now enable chemists to create precision instruments custom-tailored to specific research requirements.
Assistant Professor at Faculty of Chemistry, University of Warsaw, Poland. Academic researcher, specialized in analytical chemistry with the emphasis on novel constructions of optical detectors, miniaturization and automation of the analytical procedures, mainly for clinical analysis and microbiology. He gained his scientific experience in the reputable research centers in Thailand, Japan and the United States. The laureate of prestigious national and international awards. Author of 24 scientific articles from ISI Master Journal List (total IF of 142.8) with the h-index of 10.
