The University of Chicago's Cellular Screening Center (CSC) is using Tecan's Freedom EVO workstations to provide high-throughput cell-screening services.
'We are a service laboratory, performing various high-throughput analysis projects, including whole genome SiRNA screening and small molecule screening,' said Sam Bettis, technical director at the CSC.
'When designing the laboratory, we chose the Freedom EVO platforms for their reliability and precision, as well as Tecan's excellent customer service.
'Our laboratory can't afford any downtime, so services such as after-care support and annual service contracts are very important.
'We have a complex set-up, and Tecan has helped us with software-related tasks, including integration of a microplate heat sealer and software upgrades,' he added.
