Transforming research with AI and unified workflows

Hear from Rob Brown, Head of the Scientific Office at Sapio Sciences, as he shares its mission to support scientific workflows with enhanced AI assistance, enabling more efficient, faster, and smarter scientific research.

Discover the Electronic Lab AI powered Notebook (ElaiN), an innovative solution powered by Large Language Models (LLMs) that allows scientists to use simple natural language phrases to “ask” their ELN or LIMS to conduct various tasks or to ask it a question. Learn how this new scientific assistant is enabling scientists to work more effectively and accelerate project progress whilst improving data accessibility and integrity.

Sapio Sciences

Sapio Sciences recognize that lab informatics is about more than weaving together workflows or organizing data. It’s about making life easier for the scientist and scientific progress faster for everyone.

Founded as a machine learning and artificial intelligence company at a time when the lab was not yet ready to embrace the full potential of AI, Sapio has always recognized the fundamental role of a proper platform, a scalable data architecture, and a unified user experience to empower scientists in their truly heroic work. Sapio believe that technologies like AI will dramatically simplify and accelerate science as long as they are applied in a way that puts the scientist first.

Through the market’s first science-aware solutions, Sapio power levels of configurability, usability, and insight that scientists have only ever dreamed of. By challenging the status quo with a spirit of scientific questioning, they uncover the needs at the heart of science and respond to them with powerful solutions that are simple to use, effortless to evolve, and downright easy to love.
