New and Unique at SLAS Europe 2023

Lab of the Future Designated Exhibitors

As part of SLAS’s strategic goal of advancing scientific data harmonization, we are designating exhibitors who are going beyond automated instrumentation alone, pushing beyond advances in current technology and breaking new ground to achieve complete integration of automated workflows in the lab space.
