Managing studies from preclinical studies generates a number of challenges:

 
  • Coordinating scientists, facilities and resources
  •  
  • Balancing demands of multiple projects
  •  
  • Tracking requests and results
  •  
  • Accessing and reviewing reports
  • BioRails unique combination of flexible data management and discovery project management tool make it an ideal solution for preclinical research. Traditional data management solutions are too rigid for this dynamic research environment. Electronic laboratory notebooks provide the flexibility but at the sacrifice of losing the structure of data making it difficult to exploit.

    BioRails provides a structured data management platform for preclinical studies supporting research by facilitating:

     
  • Adapting of protocols to capture unexpected observations
  •  
  • Calculating of QC across historical results
  •  
  • Combining data, charts, analysis and images into study reports
  •  
  • Searching across studies
  • MorphIt is a unique multi-dimensional spreadsheet allowing protocols to be adapted and changed during experiments. Data import from instruments and reader files are combined with summarisation and statistical analysis making it an ideal tool for complex preclinical studies. The combination of flexible data capture and analysis with  a robust and scalable data management platform makes BioRails and MorphIt an ideal solution for preclinical studies.
