For many organizations, automation is the holy grail of process optimization. At VIB Technologies, the potential of robotics has become more apparent over the years as well. To save time on labor-intensive and repetitive processes such as sample preparation, VIB’s Core Facilities have recently started to rely on Opentrons. The implementation of these multipurpose robots has enabled the Cores to make strides in time efficiency and data reproducibility, with decreased waiting times for end users as a result.

The strengths of the VIB Nanobody & Protein Cores

To the Core of the matter

To get to the heart of biology, we need to zoom in. Beyond tissues, beyond cells, down to the level of proteins. These proteins are the tools, encoded in our genome, that make life work. Advances in life sciences research now allow us to refine these tools for our own purposes. This is what the VIB Nanobody and Protein Cores do. These two Core facilities stand out from the others by offering “production-based” molecular services. Their extensive experience and state-of-the-art technology allow them to produce their respective, often protein-based, products efficiently. Their close partnership allows them to build on each other’s work, which makes them both prominent players in the field of applied and basic protein biology.
