ENABLING TECHNOLOGIES FOR CHEMICAL DISCOVERY
Our flexible robotic platforms and software ecosystems improve experimental throughput, efficiency, and data quality. Integrating advanced analytical technology with these platforms enables us to rapidly explore and optimise new chemistries.
FROM DISRUPTIVE PROCESSES TO HIGH PERFORMANCE CHEMICALS
We are now using our suite of automated technologies to develop proprietary, scalable, and inexpensive synthetic routes to pharmaceutical-grade psilocybin and the new wave of psychedelic treatments for depression.
