System and method for management, execution, and analysis of laboratory experiments

A system for developing scientific experiments comprising one or more processors in one or more computers, one or more instruments, and a memory storing machine-readable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to:

• generate a protocol object representing a protocol to execute an experiment, the protocol object being linked to a sample, source materials, a sensor to track the sample, and second sensors to track the source materials;
• process the protocol object to generate the protocol to execute the experiment;
• execute the experiment to modify the sample based on the instructions;
• and
• based on a change in the sample or the source materials, as tracked by the sensor or the second sensors, update the protocol object to modify the protocol.
