Benchling's awesome - definitely a well-designed (and much needed!) tool for biologists. They've done a great job with adding new features, from CRISPR design to gel analysis, and their latest electronic lab notebook update is a compelling step towards becoming the central hub for designing, storing and sharing experiments and data.
I know nothing about life sciences, but from talking to friends it seems like this is one of those no brainer ideas.<p>I'm curious to know what some of the adoption/market challenges are - is it hard to get scientists/students to actually use something like this? Why hasn't anyone built this yet? Are there certain technical challenges that haven't yet been addressed?<p>Congrats to a great team!
I have spoken to a few of their customers and the benchling team has built a beautiful and uniquely useful product for life-scientists. Congrats on the progress and success!
