Trade in your lab bench for an autonomous lab from @ginkgo 😎

[Jason Kelly @jrkelly]

Proud to announce that @Ginkgo was awarded a $47M contract to kick off President Trump's new Genesis Mission and build the world's largest autonomous lab at Pacific Northwest National Lab!

I was honored to join @SecretaryWright as he commissioned the first phase of the lab yesterday at PNNL 🇺🇸🤖

Autonomous labs allow scientists to order experiments just by asking for them and are a key component for AI models to accelerate science at the scale outlined in the Genesis Project by @mkratsios47, @dariogila, @sriramk.

More below, including some behind the scenes footage 😀

@bots_and_bits hahaha I know it's amazing

[Jason Kelly @jrkelly]

Boston is World Cup crazy right now. Really fun

Exclusive: Treasury Department is considering outbound investment restrictions on biotech, multiple sources tell @endpts. Two sources that spoke directly with dept. officials believe it's likely biotech is added to a forthcoming rule at least in some form. https://t.co/UjWxnBwySQ

@kudkudakpl @MoleculeOne @OpenAI Awesome work !! 👏👏👏

Yassssss you love to see it 😆😆😆

What if you could program your laboratory as easily as sending a text or typing on a computer?

We launched the Ginkgo Cloud Lab, featured in @Scientific American today, to make it that easy. Researchers have been sending their experiments to our autonomous lab in Boston simply by typing plain-language commands into our interface. 

Our CEO @jrkelly explains how our autonomous lab infrastructure continues to be leveraged by scientists, the Genesis Mission, OpenAI, and more.

If you think mathematical science is interesting, wait until everyone can start to do experimental science thanks to AI + autonomous labs.

[Marc Andreessen 🇺🇸 @pmarca]

No question at all.

[Jason Kelly @jrkelly]

Nice @sciam article highlighting @ginkgo’s work with @openAI to give GPT-5 access to the world’s largest autonomous lab. Worked pretty well!!

[Jason Kelly @jrkelly]

@SexyLikeMeiosis @michaelcburgess Yeah it’s easy to fix since US controls the market for drugs (70% of profits originate in US). So can set whatever rules we want for access to the market.

[Jason Kelly @jrkelly]

Great leadership here from @michaelcburgess 👏👏

We need to act quickly to prevent the offshoring of US biotechnology R&D to low cost scientific labor in China. Great article here about the steps to take!

[Jason Kelly @jrkelly]

@vbvoid @michaelcburgess Yep! We need to automate. But also while the US pays for 70% of drug industry profits then may as well set the rules to favor having a national capability.

@AndrewE_Dunn What’s driving these changes? You can outsource early stage science to China for 1/5 of the cost at 2x the speed.

People are sleeping in on Ginkgo’s protocol shipping velocity and acceleration. When the org is aligned to the single goal and vision - they become unstoppable.

[Derya Unutmaz, MD @DeryaTR_]

@jrkelly This is great price for full QC!

[Jake Becraft @DrSynbio]

You’re being manipulated.

Important for biotech leaders to also consider: China will cut off these deals once they’ve learned enough & starved the domestic base. After the damage has been done, what then?

I welcome you all to continue pushing with us to accelerate biomedicine

[Jason Kelly @jrkelly]

@lunarcycling @agupta 🙌🙌

[Jason Kelly @jrkelly]

Awesome to get our first RNA protocols up on Ginkgo Cloud Lab!! For only $99 go from sequence to full QC data -- yield, purity, and quantification!! Tell us what other assays you’d like !

[Ginkgo Bioworks @Ginkgo]

As seen in Microsoft's Discovery blog, we’re launching our first RNA-related service on Ginkgo’s Cloud Lab!

Starting this week, you can order IVT mRNA or circRNA synthesis followed by with SPRI Purification and qPCR Quantification. Submit a sequence and get back full QC data -- yield, purity, and quantification.

Submit your designs and get started today: https://t.co/EgHCuzmODC
