Teranode Addresses Semantic Web Standards for Life Sciences in New White Paper

Teranode Corporation, the leading innovator of experiment design automation (XDA) software for the Life Sciences industry, today announced the availability of a new white paper discussing how the adoption of Semantic Web standards allows R&D organizations to unify data from various sources to accelerate scientific inquiry and Teranode’s roadmap for adopting Semantic Web standards.

The white paper titled, “Unifying Data with the Semantic Web for the Life Sciences,” demonstrates how leveraging Semantic Web standards opens up a new range of application development possibilities, and embraces the distributed decentralized nature of R&D, giving scientists a useful dashboard view of experiments.  The paper also outlines the company’s roadmap with plans to integrate Semantic Web technologies into its award-winning informatics platform TERANODE XDA.

TERANODE XDA, unifies data from in-silico and laboratory experiments to streamline R&D processes and projects.  The platform’s core application is TERANODE Design Suite, a visual tool for scientists that allows in-silico and lab experiments to be designed, automated, analyzed, and published for the benefit of accelerated R&D.

“Data integration remains a bottleneck for scientists in the Life Sciences who have too few tools for searching and aggregating data from multiple databases,” said Matthew Shanahan, Chief Marketing Officer for Teranode.  “The adoption of Semantic Web standards not only allows data integration to be automated for scientists but provides a flexible framework that accommodates changes driven by R&D discovery and innovation..”
