Anthropic has set up a bio research lab for physical experiments

Anthropic has established a biology research lab in the San Francisco Bay Area to conduct physical experiments, according to Reuters. Eric Kauderer-Abrams, the company's Head of Life Sciences, has confirmed the lab's existence to the news organization. "We believe that to do biology, the final test is still and will be for a while in real lab work," he said. "We absolutely are doing that today..." He also said that while Anthropic is doing lab work in-house, it's also working with external partners when it makes sense.
