Abstract:
The challenge of making complex data understandable and accessible to biomedical researchers is common across a variety of domains. Informatics organizations need to enable investigators to take advantage of exponential growth in volume and complexity of data sets available from sophisticated electronic health records and next-generation genomic sequencing technologies.
To that end, this webinar will discuss Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia’s (CHOP) recent deployment of an enterprise-class Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and how they partnered with Thermo Fisher Scientific to develop new functionality to advance clinical and translational research. It will also describe CHOP’s opt-in approach to user adoption and best practices for implementation of informatics solutions in this environment.
