About

Heidi Fleischer is a leading researcher at the forefront of laboratory automation, specializing in the application of dual-arm robotics to revolutionize complex sample preparation and analytical measurement processes in the life sciences. Her work directly addresses critical deficits in automating intricate, frequently changing laboratory tasks that have traditionally resisted high-throughput solutions. Fleischer’s major contributions include pioneering the integration of electronic pipettes with dual-arm robotic systems to perform precise, flexible analytical measurements, as demonstrated in her highly cited 2016 paper (60 citations). She has also advanced the field by developing user-friendly workflow management systems that seamlessly integrate mobile robots with human operators and existing automation, as well as applying robotic sample preparation to critical biomedical analyses, such as the determination of heavy metals in autopsy tissue. Her research on using IAQ-index sensors for hazardous gas detection further showcases her versatility. With a portfolio of papers consistently cited by the international community, Fleischer is a key architect of the future “lab of the future,” where robots and humans collaborate to achieve unprecedented efficiency, safety, and reproducibility in scientific discovery.
