Clinical trial oversight has long meant reconciling separate views: Clinical Ops, Data Management, Medical Monitors, and Biostatisticians each working from their own reports. Astrix explores how a centralized Data Quality Oversight Interface, powered by AI-led curation and agentic automation, unifies these roles into one real-time view of trial health, cutting the lag between signal and action.[Read More]

Audit Trail Example: What FDA Inspectors Actually Review

Inspectors do not start with the result. They start with one record and ask what happened to it. ELabELN walks through a single method qualification run with eight audit trail entries, showing which ones hold up, which one triggers an observation, and why the configuration entries most labs skip are the ones reviewers read first.[Read More]

The PFAS Deadline That Did Not Move: Initial Monitoring Is Due April 26, 2027

EPA has proposed pushing PFAS treatment compliance to 2031 and rescinding four of the six regulated analytes, but neither proposal moves the monitoring date.

Replacing Your LIMS? Ask the Right Questions First

A LIMS replacement is a long term decision that reaches well past the feature checklist. SciY walks through what a future ready system needs: cloud native architecture, API first integration, embedded security and compliance, and an interface teams will actually use. The piece also weighs vendor partnership, migration support, and total cost of ownership.[Read More]

FSMA 204 Moved to 2028. Your Retail Customers’ Deadlines Did Not.

The FDA pushed its Food Traceability Rule to July 2028, but Kroger, Walmart, Sam's Club, Albertsons, Target, and KeHE never moved theirs, and most now require traceability data on all foods rather than only listed ones. This breaks down what the retailer requirements actually involve, where an ASN build leaves lab records unjoined, and what to fix first.[Read More]

Lab Portal: Client Sample Submission, Powered by Your ELabELN

At many labs, sample intake still runs on emailed PDFs, phone calls, and requisitions re-keyed by hand.
