The University of Toronto is home to a new “self-driving lab” that will allow researchers to better understand health and disease — and to more rapidly test the efficacy and toxicity of new drugs and materials.

Based at the Donnelly Centre for Cellular and Biomolecular Research, the Self-Driving Laboratory for Human Organ Mimicry is the latest self-driving lab to spring from a historic $200-million grant from the Canada First Research Excellence Fund to the Acceleration Consortium — a global effort to speed the discovery of materials and molecules that is one of several U of T institutional strategic initiatives.
