Anthropic building San Francisco-area biology lab where Claude will guide robots

Anthropic is establishing a biology lab near San Francisco to run physical drug experiments with AI guidance; the company plans for Claude to direct robots through experiments using tools such as Claude Science and the Model Hardware Standard, with human oversight retained. The move follows Anthropic's acquisition of Coefficient Bio (about $400 million) and addition of Novartis CEO Vas Narasimhan to its board; Anthropic says it will not run clinical trials for now.

Anthropic confirms it operates a wet biology lab

The company — which acquired Coefficient Bio in April — declined to detail the lab’s projects, said it is not focused on drug discovery, and launched a Life Sciences Verification Program to give vetted researchers access to its most powerful models.
