On the research side of things, such devices would automate processes to save time and effort. "This would make it possible, for example, for researchers, who might sleep on a cot next to their experiment for 72 hours and watch for when a cell buds off so they can put it in a separate container, to focus on other things,” Holl said. “It would increase their ability to do more experiments, to gather more statistics, more numbers. And it frees one up to imagine new experiments.” That is not the picture of science I've been carrying around, but I'm glad there is apparently a real opportunity to get scientists off their cots. And that's just one example.
