SFU unveils new high-tech robotic chemical biology research lab

By: Nathaniel Tok, Peak Associate   SFU has recently opened the new Centre for High Throughput Chemical Biology (cHTCB) facility. Bristling with high-tech automated equipment, the lab is the newest addition to the research facilities in the faculty of science and will conduct research at the crossroads of chemistry and biology. In an interview with The Peak, professor and co-director of the cHTCB David Vadlo explained that the project began five years ago when a lack of high throughput screening technology in the region was observed. A solution in the form of an automatic robotic facility was conceived, which would allow…
