‘The Process Is the Product’ Is No Longer Enough. Now, Data Is the Deliverable
Jun 01 | Bio-IT World | In biomanufacturing, particularly with respect to advanced therapies such as gene and cell therapies, there is a saying: "the process is the product." That insight is still important, but it's also insufficient. As the industry adapts to increasingly complex manufacturing processes, we'd like to propose a reframe: the data is the deliverable. For personalized medicine to reach its potential, leveraging process data to drive learning will be key. More -

New Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test Suggests Generic Z-Pak Can Cure Superbugs
May 18 | Bio-IT World | A new antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) method developed by scientists at the University of California, Santa Barbara, resolves the longstanding conflict between what the gold-standard assay says will work and actual patient outcomes when it comes to selecting antibiotics. The alternative AST protocol reveals that antibiotics already widely available on the market can cure superbugs. More -
Variation In The Gut Highlights Human Individuality
May 16 | Bio-IT World | Anatomical investigations performed on 45 individuals who donated their bodies to science have revealed that the human gut is stunningly diverse based on the size of the organs making up the gastrointestinal (GI) system. Whether those differences are based on what people eat, where they live, or their ancestry is anyone’s guess. More -
Illumina Relaunches Correlation Engine, Banking on Need for ‘Omics Informatics Tools
