A robot is used to rapidly screen through thousands of compounds to identify those that selectively target cancer cells with defined genetic abnormalities. With robotics, researchers can screen approximately 40,000 unique compounds against eight unique cell lines in 4-6 weeks and reduce human error. Without robotics, this work would take six months to a year to complete, thereby delaying the development of new cancer drug therapies."  />
