Genedata Screener 20 Further Accelerates and Digitalizes Assay Data Workflows — To Be Showcased at SLAS2023

New release of the market-leading platform automates assay analysis and simplifies access to consolidated assay information across the enterprise

February 21, 2023
Basel, Switzerland

Genedata, the leading provider of enterprise software solutions for biopharmaceutical R&D, today announced the release of Genedata Screener® 20. The most comprehensive digital platform for assay analysis in Biopharma R&D, Genedata Screener shortens design-make-test-analyze (DMTA) cycles in R&D through real-time data capture and automated analysis of simple and complex assays. It consolidates and FAIRifies assay information across the enterprise, including with CROs and other external collaborators. Genedata Screener provides easy access to fully integrated, up-to-date assay information to global R&D teams, providing significant time savings, and enabling efficient decision-making. The new Genedata Screener 20 will be featured among SLAS2023 Tutorial Sessions and demonstrated at SLAS Booth #1044 (February 25 – March 1; San Diego Convention Center).

Automated Data Workflows Enable End-to-End Lab Automation 

“Many companies are investing in laboratory automation to scale up and accelerate their research and development workflows. Genedata Screener tremendously increases the ROI of those investments by automating the corresponding data workflows,” noted Othmar Pfannes, Ph.D., CEO of Genedata. “Genedata Screener intelligently captures and integrates experimental data directly from a variety of analytical instruments, ensuring that only data of the highest quality enters the automated data analysis workflows. Moreover, it enables the contextualization of ontology-based annotations for guided decision-making and real-time publication of results,” continued Dr. Pfannes. “With the latest version of Genedata Screener, we achieve a major step forward in our goal for full end-to-end lab automation and AI-supported decision-making. Genedata Screener should enable biopharma R&D organizations to develop innovative biotherapeutics faster and more efficiently.”

Genedata Screener digitalizes assay workflows and integrates and condenses complex experimental data to power efficient project decisions. Some of the advanced new capabilities of Genedata Screener version 20 include:
•    Turn-key autonomous data loading and real-time analysis to accelerate the DMTA cycle in drug discovery and reduce consumable spend by alerts on experiments going the wrong way.
•    FAIRification of Assay data by establishing an Assay Catalog that integrates controlled vocabularies from internal and external providers. The FAIR data concept included in Genedata Screener lays a solid foundation for cross-site collaboration, data transparency, as well as AI-based predictions and project decisions.
•    Automated data capture from assay runs to ingest assay results simply and systematically. The Result Uploader module captures assays from internal and external sites such as CROs and other collaborators, adds relevant metadata, and enables their review and publishing by internal project teams. 
•    Mass Spectrometry Screening Extension enables broad adoption of mass spectrometry screening in mid- to high-throughput with ready-to-go analysis workflows. The extension covers widely-used assay formats such as Affinity Selection, Multiple Reaction Monitoring, and a range of Covalent Binding assays.
