In the past, we dreamed of an “AI lab colleague” that could autonomously read papers, design experiments, handle pipetting, and catch errors. Now, that dream is becoming a reality.
In biological research, traditional automation tools are often limited to executing preset programs, struggling to adapt to the uncertainties and complexities of lab work. With advancing technology, scientists are exploring ways to integrate natural language processing, computer vision, and robotics to enable autonomous experiment design and execution.
A research team from the Suzhou Institute for Advanced Study at the University of Science and Technology of China has developed **BioMARS** (Biological Multi-Agent Robotic System). By deeply integrating large language models (LLMs), vision-language models (VLMs), and modular robotics, BioMARS achieves end-to-end intelligent automation—from understanding experimental intent to executing operations—breaking through the limitations of traditional automation in perception and decision-making.
The team describes BioMARS not as a rigid, rule-following tool but as a robotic biologist with true reasoning, perception, and execution capabilities.
