Air-free environments are one of the hardest places for humans to work in -- love that we built the largest robotic anaerobic lab in the world for @PNNLab to address this! Important vision from @MichaelKratsios, @ScienceUnderSec, and @POTUS to make US national labs into the "cloud lab" infrastructure for US scientists to order experiments and to connect with AI! Cant wait to see more of these built!
