About
Farzad Nejatimoharrami is a robotics and artificial life researcher whose work sits at the compelling intersection of laboratory automation, open-source hardware, and experimental biology. He is best known as a principal developer of EvoBot, a modular, open-source liquid-handling robot designed to automate and enhance experiments in artificial chemical life research. His contributions address a critical gap in the field: the need for precise, long-running automated systems capable of monitoring dynamic, non-equilibrium biological systems such as microbial fuel cells and chemical droplet experiments. Nejatimoharrami's most cited work, "New Capabilities of EvoBot" (2017, 19 citations), demonstrates the platform's ability to conduct feedback-based experiments autonomously over extended periods—a significant advance for reproducibility and scalability in artificial life research. Alongside colleagues, he integrated computer vision with robotic automation to further improve experimental precision and reliability. His work on user interface design for liquid-handling robots also reflects a commitment to making sophisticated laboratory tools accessible to a broader research community. With a focused body of work accumulating over 50 citations, Nejatimoharrami has made a meaningful contribution to democratizing advanced experimental infrastructure in both robotics and synthetic biology.
