From Pipettes to Platforms: The Evolution of GPCR Research

Back when GPCR assays were performed with single channel pipettes, failure wasn’t cheap.

Michelle Halls still remembers pipetting one sample at a time, holding her breath to keep the assay alive.

Today, automation and high-throughput platforms make it easy to forget how fragile discovery used to be. But that history matters. It shaped how we design experiments, make decisions, and lead teams.

In this week’s Dr. GPCR Podcast blog, we unpack:

• How the manual era shaped experimental discipline

• Why technology changed what we ask, not just how we ask

• How scientists grow from technicians to strategic leaders
