What can we expect in 2026 when it comes to life science technology?

We asked our @vibtechwatch.bsky.social team: https://beakon.ghost.io/we-expect-the-boundaries-between-core-facilities-to-blur-even-further/

Here’s to a year of fewer walls, better tools, and smarter pipelines! ✨

Heads-up for all VIB Techies: at our @vibtechnologies.bsky.social Day on Nov 6th, we’ll host a session on job shadowing and open the next call. Perfect timing if you’re curious, hunting for blind spots, or keen to co-optimize pipelines with neighboring cores!
October 28, 2025 at 9:32 AM
Our job shadowing program is a peer-learning initiative that helps colleagues step into other cores, swap know-how, and tighten workflows across disciplines.

👉 Inspired to start shadowing someone in your field or line of work?
