BenchSci Enters into Partnership with Thermo Fisher Scientific to Advance AI-Powered R&D Tools

Wednesday, October 01, 2025

BenchSci has entered into a strategic partnership with Thermo Fisher Scientific to develop artificial intelligence (AI)-driven tools aimed at improving research and development productivity in the life sciences sector.

The collaboration will combine BenchSci’s ASCEND™ AI technology with Thermo Fisher’s global expertise in laboratory equipment, consumables, and services. Together, the companies plan to create enterprise software solutions, advanced literature search tools, and optimised reagent selection systems. 

These developments are intended to support scientists in interpreting complex datasets, designing more effective experiments, and making better use of laboratory resources.

The initiative is expected to strengthen digital capabilities for researchers, enabling faster decision-making and improving the efficiency of drug discovery and preclinical research. 

By integrating AI with laboratory operations, the partnership aims to reduce costs, accelerate timelines, and enhance innovation across the life sciences ecosystem.
