  1. About Geospiza (http://www.geospiza.com/Company/default.shtml)
  2. Geospiza is a leading developer of enterprise-class software systems
  3. for workflow management of genetic analysis.
  4. Geospiza has established itself as the life science industry’s top
  5. software developer for meeting the combined laboratory, data
  6. management and analytical needs of biotechnology and pharmaceutical
  7. companies, universities, researchers, contract core and diagnostic
  8. laboratories involved in genetic testing and manufacturing bio-
  9. therapeutics.
  10. The life sciences field is rapidly evolving beyond sequencing genomes
  11. for pure research to developing clinically relevant initiatives such
  12. as understanding what genetic information is useful for drug
  13. development, determining drug efficacy, toxicity screening and
  14. diagnosing infectious agents.
  15. This expansion of the field is resulting in a dramatic increase in the
  16. amount of data that must be managed by genetic testing laboratories
  17. and research institutions. Underscoring this growth is the desire by
  18. the Food & Drug Administration (FDA) and the broader healthcare
  19. community to match drugs more specifically to a person's individual
  20. genetic profile. The FDA is expected to focus on the sensitivity and
  21. accuracy of these new diagnostics, thereby increasing the need for
  22. verifiable, repeatable processes for testing.
  23. Today, the amount of manual work required to manage and make sense of
  24. the vast amounts of genetic information being generated by clinical
  25. and life science research laboratories worldwide is tremendous. In
  26. order to be able to scale to meet this increased demand and scrutiny
  27. in a cost-effective way, automated solutions are required.
  28. Geospiza makes software for crunching the vast amounts of genetic
  29. data. When a laboratory uses GeneSifter Lab Edition, they are able to
  30. significantly increase capacity, reduce their backlog, eliminate
  31. errors due to manual processes, and speed time to discovery. The
  32. software is being used today worldwide by leading institutions and
  33. laboratories for everything from clinical DNA testing and bio-
  34. therapeutic manufacturing to contract core lab services and basic
  35. research and discovery.
  36. Geospiza's products are designed and built by biologists, enabling
  37. researchers to focus on the science, not the software.
