Bio-IT World | With the rapid growth of genomic data and the need for access by cross-functional teams, it is vital to ensure that this sensitive data is adequately protected and monitored. PetaGene's PetaSuite Protect ensures that protection.

Bio-IT World | Natural language processing is finding novel applications at Novo Nordisk, turning a trio of real-world data sources into a goldmine of knowledge about the medicines it makes, the healthcare providers who prescribe them, and patients who usually pay for a portion of the cost.

STAT | Patients are about to be enrolled in the first study to test a gene-editing technique known as CRISPR inside the body to try to cure an inherited form of blindness.

Bio-IT World Contributed Commentary | Clinicians are faced with tedious data entry that can benefit by unobtrusive input verification and auto-completion. Coupling traditional data quality methods with AI makes it possible to efficiently solve issues like ensuring correct data, reporting to related systems, identifying medicine interactions, improving care processes—without changing clinical workflows.
