GenoLogics Announces Partnership with London Genetics

18 Oct 2007 - GenoLogics announced it will work closely with London Genetics Ltd., a commercial company whose purpose is to facilitate and manage partnerships between the health care industry and centers of biomedical excellence in London, to identify opportunities for collaboration.
 
GenoLogics will help promote London Genetics' efforts in building an extensive research network of scientists and clinicians through joint workshops and scientific forums. As London Genetics builds different combinations of discrete biological, experimental and bioinformatics expertise and resources across London, GenoLogics will, where appropriate, provide advice and expertise to ensure that a suitable lab informatics infrastructure is in place to manage these complex networks. GenoLogics and London Genetics will also work together to identify collaborative projects and grant funding opportunities.
 
Through this partnership, GenoLogics will provide complimentary expertise to potential London Genetics consortia in the area of informatics infrastructure. Projects will be able to take advantage of their OMIX lab informatics platform coupled with purposed proteomics (Proteus) and genomics (Geneus) modules to help provide a multi-lab and multi-science platform with a common database for all consortia partners, independent of role. This shall in turn help allow each partner to rapidly interchange and share their leading edge research data reducing to a minimum data redundancy and time consuming manual transcriptions of data, while increasing the opportunities to automatically capture instrument based experimental data and perform downstream data analysis options.
