Ingenuity Systems and TransMed Systems Integrate Software to Support Personalized Medicine Research
By Ingenuity Systems, PRNEMonday, October 18, 2010
REDWOOD CITY, California, October 19, 2010 - Ingenuity(R) Systems, the leading provider of information solutions for
life science researchers, and TransMed Systems, a translational medicine
software and services company, today announced an integration between IPA(R)
software and XB Bio-Integration Suite (XB-BIS). Researchers can now easily
take pre-clinical and clinical data that is managed and statistically
analyzed by XB-BIS, directly into IPA(R), which is used by researchers to
model, analyze, and explore various types of 'omics data to gain a deeper
understanding of complex biological systems.
The software integration supports academic and commercial researchers who
are studying how genes affect the way individuals respond to drug treatments.
Joint customers will have a clear workflow to analyze pre-clinical and
clinical data in the context of signaling and metabolic pathways, networks,
and cellular processes available in IPA. This approach helps researchers move
rapidly and confidently from hypothesis generation to validation experiments.
Nick Berens, CEO, TransMed Systems, said, "The integration between XB-BIS
and IPA will enable physicians, clinicians and researchers to integrate the
latest biological content, pathways and molecular networks into their
translational medicine and research. These enhanced capabilities will allow
for more timely and informed treatment strategies and practices and improve
personalized medicine."
Doug Bassett, Ph.D., CSO and CTO, Ingenuity Systems, stated,
"Personalized medicine requires the ability to quickly translate large
amounts of data into meaningful biological information. We're very pleased
that our partnership with TransMed will provide a streamlined platform from
which researchers and clinicians will be able to collect and analyze data,
link genotypes to phenotypes, identify potential biomarkers, generate
powerful and informed hypotheses, and understand the molecular differences
between patient populations for improved diagnostics and therapeutics."
