About ECL:



<https://www.emeraldcloudlab.com>

The Emerald Cloud Laboratory (ECL) enables life scientists to move out of the
lab, and to conduct research entirely from a computer. Stepping away from
manual completion of experiments at the bench, scientists on the ECL leverage
the remote, automated execution of all standard biology and chemistry
experiments in Emerald's industrial lab facilities, working within a software
platform for all stages of research workflows, from experimental design to
data analysis.
