Ross D. King and his collaborators report the development of Robot Scientist "Adam," which has autonomously generated functional genomics hypotheses about the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and experimentally tested these hypotheses by using laboratory automation. See: Science 3 April 2009: Vol. 324. no. 5923, pp. 85 - 89
and http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/abstract/324/5923/85
