About

Delphine Morin is a specialist in laboratory automation and the qualification of robotic systems for life sciences. Her research focuses on ensuring the reliability and performance of integrated laboratory instruments, particularly automated cell culture platforms. In her most cited work, Morin evaluated the Autocell 200, an automated cell culture incubator, assessing both its technical throughput—capable of processing 150 plates—and its potential mechanical interference with cell growth. This study provided critical validation for the adoption of automation in sensitive biological workflows. Her second key contribution, a JALA Tutorial on the qualification of robotic laboratory equipment, adapts industrial production process methods to the unique demands of laboratory robotics. This work addresses how malfunctions in robotic components can compromise entire integrated systems, offering a systematic framework for performance qualification. Though her citation counts are modest, Morin’s contributions are foundational for laboratories transitioning to high-throughput automation, where equipment qualification is essential for reproducibility and data integrity. Her work remains a practical reference for researchers and engineers implementing robotics in cell culture and other lab environments.
