Scientists have created an ideal colleague - a robot that performs hundreds of repetitive experiments. The robot, called Adam, is the first machine to have independently "discovered new scientific knowledge". It has already identified the role of several genes in yeast cells, and is able to plan further experiments to test its own hypotheses. The UK-based team that built Adam at Aberystwyth University describes the breakthrough in the journal Science. (source: news.bbc.co.uk)
