Many life science companies have large digitalization initiatives, which include a focus on laboratory data. However, challenges such as inconsistent infrastructures, poor or lacking integration interfaces, and varied personal skill sets make it difficult to both implement these initiatives and realize the promised benefits (e.g. improved experimental reproducibility, reduction in errors, increased productivity, etc.).
In this online event we bring together a group of experts to discuss and demonstrate how KNIME can help to tackle these challenges. The event is cohosted with KNIME event partner SiLA.
We’ll look at analyzing and integrating diverse data (e.g., images, assay, or spectra), enriching such data through contextualization, and talk about how KNIME can help ease user adoption and facilitate the automation of laboratory processes by integrating laboratory standards.
NOTE: This online event is being held on Thursday April 22, 2021 at 3 PM - 5 PM UTC +2 (Berlin) which is 8 AM - 10 AM UTC -5 (Chicago).
