Modern crystallography requires more than just high-end instrumentation; it demands a strategic alignment of workflow design, scientific objectives, and laboratory infrastructure. Meagan Dufrisne of Helix Biostructures and Matthew Cucuzza from Hudson Lab Automation will lead the session, focusing on practical methodologies for scaling operations without sacrificing experimental flexibility. The discussion aims to provide a framework for identifying bottlenecks in liquid handling, plate management, and environmental control.
Scaling Protein Crystallography Through Laboratory Automation
As drug discovery demands higher throughput and greater reproducibility, protein crystallography laboratories are shifting toward automated workflows. A live webinar on July 24, 2026, hosted by Xtalks, will examine how researchers can integrate automated systems to refine processes from initial sample preparation to final imaging.

Participants will gain insights into balancing high-volume throughput with the need for specialized application support. The speakers will address common pitfalls that delay adoption, such as optimizing lab footprints and selecting compatible consumables. The session is designed to assist diverse environments, ranging from academic labs to biopharma facilities, in transitioning toward more efficient and reliable structural discovery processes.
