The Buffalo Association for Self-driving Intelligent Laboratories and Intedisciplinary Convergent Autonomous Science
BASILICAS is a self-organized association of University at Buffalo researchers interested in self-driving laboratories (SDLs) and autonomous science.
SDLs are autonomous platforms that can carry out scientific experiments with little human intervention.
SDLs have already demonstrated orders-of-magnitude speed-ups for scientific discovery. Funding opportunities are increasingly and explicitly calling for ideas in autonomous experimentation.
