loading=\"lazy\"><span>ADVERTISEMENT<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The team combined multiple Large Language Models (LLMs), large databases and physical laboratory robotics into a closed-loop system that can run the full cycle of scientific discovery.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is too much information for a human to analyse, but our AI scientist could identify promising biological questions, recommend experiments to test them, evaluate experimental outcomes and iteratively refine its understanding based on new evidence,\u201d said Ievgeniia Tiukova, a researcher at Chalmers University of Technology, and one of the authors of the new study that examined the AI scientist. <\/p>\n<p>The AI scientist analysed a database of approximately 60,000 phenotypical, physiological and metabolic relations for S. cerevisiae \u2014 a species of yeast also called brewer\u2019s yeast or baker\u2019s yeast. Then the system formed nearly 2,000 testable predictions about how nutrients impact cell growth and stress resistance. <\/p>\n<p>Then these hypotheses were evaluated, selected comparison controls and converted the ideas into step-by-step, machine-readable instructions for lab equipment. <\/p>\n<p>Once tests were finished, the AI analysed the data, determined whether predictions were correct and automatically updated or refined refuted hypotheses for future cycles.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRather than serving solely as decision-supporting tools, the AI scientist actively generates new scientific knowledge,\u201d Tiukova said.<\/p>\n<p>The authors noted that the future of scientific research lies in automation; advances in robotics, AI and high-throughput technologies are transforming the scientific process. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cAI Scientists will collaborate with human scientists to accelerate discoveries across biology, medicine and biotechnology,\u201d said Ross King, senior author of the study at the University of Gothenburg. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSuch AI systems have the potential to reduce the time required to explore complex scientific questions, and optimise the use of laboratory resources,\u201d King said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-widget-related\" data-stories-id data-event=\"widget_related\">\n<div class=\"c-widget-related__title\"><b class=\"c-widget-related__title__text\"

without replacing doctors, von der Leyen says<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Humans will still be essential<\/h2>\n<p>Researchers said such AI solutions could minimise human bias, accelerate research cycles and reduce variation caused by human error, incomplete recording of experimental protocols, environmental conditions and other factors that can affect outcomes and reproducibility. <\/p>\n<p>However, the authors stressed that humans will still be key in scientific research. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHumans will remain essential for setting priorities, interpreting broader contexts, developing research programmes and ensuring compliance with ethical rules,\u201d King said. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cFuture generations of autonomous laboratories will become increasingly capable of collaborating with humans and will be valuable partners in efforts to solve the most challenging questions in biology and medicine\u201d. <\/p>\n<p>As AI use in research advances, international bodies are moving to set out how it should be governed. <\/p>\n<p>The World Health Organization (WHO) recently published a report with recommendations for researchers, ethics committees, regulators, funders and policymakers \u201cto help ensure that AI-enabled health research is conducted responsibly and for the benefit of all\u201d. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Artificial intelligence is creating unprecedented opportunities to accelerate health research and improve people&#8217;s lives,\u201d said Meg Doherty, director at WHO\u2019s Department of Science for Health. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt the same time, innovation must be guided by strong ethical safeguards that protect human dignity, rights and equity\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>                                  Go to accessibility shortcuts<\/p>\n<div

experiments and interpreting results.\u00a0The team combined multiple Large Language Models (LLMs), large databases and physical laboratory robotics into a closed-loop system that can run the full cycle of scientific discovery.\u201cIt is too much information for a human to analyse, but our AI scientist could identify promising biological questions, recommend experiments to test them, evaluate experimental outcomes and iteratively refine its understanding based on new evidence,\u201d said Ievgeniia Tiukova, a researcher at Chalmers University of Technology, and one of the authors of the new study that examined the AI scientist.\u00a0The AI scientist analysed a database of approximately 60,000 phenotypical, physiological and metabolic relations for S. cerevisiae \u2014 a species of yeast also called brewer\u2019s yeast or baker\u2019s yeast. Then the system formed nearly 2,000 testable predictions about how nutrients impact cell growth and stress resistance.\u00a0Then these hypotheses were evaluated, selected comparison controls and converted the ideas into step-by-step, machine-readable instructions for lab equipment.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Once tests were finished, the AI analysed the data, determined whether predictions were correct and automatically updated or refined refuted hypotheses for future cycles.\u201cRather than serving solely as decision-supporting tools, the AI scientist actively generates new scientific knowledge,\u201d Tiukova said.The authors noted that the future of scientific research lies in automation; advances in robotics, AI and high-throughput technologies are transforming the scientific process.\u00a0\u201cAI Scientists will collaborate with human scientists to accelerate discoveries across biology, medicine and biotechnology,\u201d said Ross King, senior author of the study at the University of Gothenburg.\u00a0\u201cSuch AI systems have the potential to reduce the time required to explore complex scientific questions, and optimise the use of laboratory resources,\u201d King said.Humans will still be essential\u00a0Researchers said such AI solutions could minimise human bias, accelerate research cycles and reduce variation caused by human error, incomplete recording of experimental protocols, environmental conditions and other factors that can affect outcomes and reproducibility.\u00a0However, the authors stressed that humans will still be key in scientific research.\u00a0\u201cHumans will remain essential for setting priorities, interpreting broader contexts, developing research programmes and ensuring compliance with ethical rules,\u201d King said.\u00a0\u201cFuture generations of autonomous laboratories will become increasingly capable of collaborating with humans and will be valuable partners in efforts to solve the most challenging questions in biology and medicine\u201d.\u00a0As AI use in research advances, international bodies are moving to set out how it should be governed.\u00a0The World Health Organization (WHO) recently published a report with recommendations for researchers, ethics committees, regulators, funders and policymakers \u201cto help ensure that AI-enabled health research is conducted responsibly and for the benefit of all\u201d.\u00a0\u00a0&#8220;Artificial intelligence is creating unprecedented opportunities to accelerate health research and improve people&#8217;s lives,\u201d said Meg Doherty, director at WHO\u2019s Department of Science for Health.\u00a0\u201cAt the same time, innovation must be guided by strong ethical safeguards that protect human dignity, rights and equity\u201d.\u00a0<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/2026\/10\/02\/swedish-researchers-create-an-ai-scientist-that-designs-and-runs-its-own-experiments&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221;
