INTEGRA Biosciences is inviting labs to leave manual pipetting behind and take their first steps into effortless automation with a new Lab Evolution competition for 2026. One forward-thinking laboratory will win a tailored introduction to automation from INTEGRA experts, and a 50 percent discount on an ASSIST PLUS pipetting robot.<\/p>\n

Manual workflows have supported scientific discoveries for decades, but growing demand for increased reproducibility, throughput and ergonomic safety mean that many labs are ready for a change. INTEGRA’s ASSIST PLUS pipetting robot offers a simple, versatile automation solution that fits seamlessly onto any bench, and into virtually any protocol, without the cost or complexity often associated with liquid handling automation.<\/p>\n

Step out of the Stone Age and win your first step into effortless lab automation.<\/p>\n

To enter, participants must complete INTEGRA’s questionnaire<\/a>, sharing why their lab hasn’t explored automation yet, and explain which ASSIST PLUS features are most appealing for their use case.<\/p>\n

The deadline for entries is 31st of March, 2026, with the winner announced in April 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"INTEGRA Biosciences is inviting labs to leave manual pipetting behind and take their first steps into effortless automation…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":236011,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[6534,6567,134,13451,111,139,69,30080],"class_list":{"0":"post-236010","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-health","8":"tag-automation","9":"tag-evolution","10":"tag-health","11":"tag-laboratory","12":"tag-new-zealand","13":"tag-newzealand","14":"tag-nz","15":"tag-pipetting"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/236010","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=236010"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/236010\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/236011"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=236010"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=236010"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=236010"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
