Emerald Cloud Lab is a remote controlled life science laboratory that allows scientists to conduct their experiments without being anchored to a physical lab.
In our cloud lab, experiments are driven by issuing commands over the internet, which are then run in a vast, highly automated central facility which operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.
In the ECL, you have full control over how your experiments are conducted.
