Implementing Electronic “Sign & Witness” IP Protection Processes to Reduce Cost and Improve Lab Operations
Sponsored by: Surety

Your scientific research is your Intellectual Property, and protecting the integrity and legally defending the authenticity and ownership of such data is critical to your organization’s long-term success. Today, many bio-pharma and life sciences organizations use “signing” and “witnessing” processes to position themselves to defend their valuable scientific IP. But these manual processes can be costly and time-consuming, as well as disruptive to your research teams. Whether your organization uses paper-based lab notebooks or electronic systems, this webinar will examine these problems and discuss approaches for implementing efficient electronic “Sign and Witness” processes that don’t sacrifice long-term IP protection, and enable scientists to focus on research instead of manual administrative tasks.

Breaking Through the REAL World Data Storage Barriers for Next Gen Sequencing
Sponsored by: BlueArc

The current crop of next-generation sequencers (NGS) produce a much richer set of data per sequencing run, offer researchers more insight into the biological systems they are studying, perform their work faster than before, and frequently cost less to run. However, such lab equipment places new demands on life sciences storage solutions. The reason: Each faster and more frequent run produces an order of magnitude more data than was the case with previous generation systems. Join us and learn how to:
• Accommodate the growing volume of data from NGS equipment
• Provide the performance to feed high-throughput analysis and computational workflows
• Address long-term data management cost of ownership issues by automating data migration to suitable storage tiers over time
