Much has been written of how robots have been used to streamline drug development efforts. Robots never vary their routines, never tire, and never make mistakes. But they also require a steady stream of input material to work with, and when it comes to cultured cells, that can be a problem. Although a single assay may require only a few hundred or thousand cells, high-throughput screening (HTS) programs often involve hundreds of thousands or even millions of tests.
