June 24, 2010 | At CHI's Beyond Sequencing conference in San Francisco, EdgeBio introduced their Science as a Service offering built with CLC bio's enterprise platform, CLC Genomics Server.
The service includes everything from experiment, project design, sample preparation, library construction, amplification and sequencing, bioinformatics and reporting. It offers customers a one-stop shop for next gen sequencing. EdgeBio is using Life Technolgies' SOLiD 3 sequencers that were named Tsunami, Volcano, and Hurricane by customers in April.
“In building out an integrated next generation analysis infrastructure, it was imperative that we leverage multi-faceted, commercial grade software with the ability to integrate open-source tools and proprietary internal algorithms," said Justin Johnson, director of bioinformatics in a press release. "CLC Bio provides a flexible and scalable enterprise platform which allows us to focus our efforts on providing scientific service to EdgeBio's customers.”
Remote Data Capture:Acquisition and Analysis See why Electronic Data Capture (EDC) is gaining traction in the pharmaceutical
clinical trials arena. Today approximately half of all clinical trials are conducted
electronically, and the figure is rapidly rising. Report includes contributions from
Oracle Health Sciences, Pfizer, PPD, and C3i.
The Role of Analytics in Transforming Healthcare Sharing many of the data challenges and opportunities faced by Healthcare, the Life Sciences industry remains focused on delivering new, innovative therapies and solutions to patients in a cost effective, timely and safe way. With spiraling R&D costs, new methods such as adaptive trials, and never ending need for deep pharmacovigilance, the Life Sciences companies that effectively use analytics to explore, monitor and optimize their business will rapidly become the new leaders. Oracle’s strategy—built upon Enterprise Health Analytics and Health Data Warehouse Foundation—provides a powerful, practical, and extensible approach to delivering the IT analytics infrastructure required to confront the worldwide healthcare challenge.
BPM-Based Case Management Approach to Optimizing Clinical Trial Efficiency Business Process Management (BPM) software offers liberation in the planning and management of clinical trials today. SmartBPM provides the components for automating critical clinical trial processes ranging from protocol development and patient enrollment to site management and investigator payments. Advantages are: - Potentially stunning return on investment at multiple levels.
- A 500%, or better, increase in application development time by directly executing business requirements
- Improved customer retention
- A 50% possible reduction in training time
Discovered is opportunity to enhance relationships with investigators, subjects, and regulators while bringing momentum to a technology-impaired study startup phase. Learn more about SmartBPM in this complimentary white paper.
