Abstract/Contents

Abstract
Our project addresses the challenge posed by Hamilton to improve manual liquid handling in scientific labs, particularly focusing on cell culture processes. We aim to automate the media exchange task during cell expansion, streamlining operations and enhancing efficiency. By automating this critical process, we seek to minimize errors, enhance reliability, and liberate scientists to pursue more innovative endeavors. Our vision revolves around the development of an automated device capable of seamlessly exchanging media during cell expansion, reducing the need for manual intervention. Leveraging opportunities presented by widespread incubator availability and Wi-Fi connectivity, our system offers real-time monitoring capabilities, meeting the increasing demand for automation in life sciences. With careful design considerations, including addressing challenges like temperature control during media exchange, our project represents a significant advancement in improving cell culture practices and driving scientific research forward.
