Closing the Loop: Analytical Chromatography Workflow Automation at Novartis​​

In this webinar, Felix Stemmer, Senior Scientist II​, and Martin Jockel, Senior Expert - Data Science, from Novartis showcase how they transformed analytical chromatography workflows through end-to-end automation and seamless integration between Genedata Biologics and Chromeleon. The session explores how Novartis replaced manual, error-prone processes with a closed-loop digital workflow that automates request creation, sequence generation, data acquisition, analysis, and result reporting. Attendees will learn how Novartis improves efficiency, data quality, compliance, and scalability while enabling scientists to focus on high-value scientific work rather than administrative tasks.
