About Us
Why is sponsoring the Research Bazaar important to you?
Azenta is proud to be a trusted partner among numerous Madison-based life sciences organizations. Our partnerships have promoted and improved advancements in patient therapies and reflect the collaborative approach of the University of Wisconsin’s researchers. Through our ongoing commitment to excellence and innovation, we strive to further enhance the quality of healthcare delivery and contribute meaningfully to the advancement of medical science in our community and beyond.
Could you highlight any unique or cutting-edge technologies that your organization utilizes within the realm of data science?
Automation of processes and sample management requires both hardware and software automation to enhance efficiency and reduce errors. These solutions play a pivotal role in sample and data handling by minimizing human manual interactions and optimizing operations. Influenced by our extensive expertise in sample management and automation technology, the informatics solutions from Azenta are designed to integrate seamlessly with instruments and automated storage systems needed within an organization’s workflow. Azenta enables innovative improvement of data accuracy and integrity by offering and utilizing several barcode readers, tube selectors, and storage systems to pair with our informatics solutions – all through partnership with one sample management vendor.
Data In Action
Can you share a specific instance where your organization has effectively translated data into actionable insights or outcomes?
Through data collected from customers and our own biorepositories, Azenta has compiled the most efficient and commonly used features and modules within our informatics system to create a Standard Configuration of Limfinity® Biobanking LIMS. This Standard Configuration allows users to view and search all samples regardless of their storage location, improve sample utilization, leverage compliance support, gain broad user adoption, and rapidly implement while maintaining the unique flexibility of Limfinity to build customized features and integrations, as needed. The balance between standardization and customization in workflows, aided by experienced informatics partners who constantly challenge and improve processes, ensures that while there is a streamlined method for common workflows, there is also sufficient flexibility to meet unique research needs.
In what ways does your organization encourage collaboration and knowledge sharing to maximize the impact of data across different departments or teams?
Azenta promotes collaboration and knowledge sharing through centralized sample management solutions like FreezerPro® and Limfinity Biobanking LIMS. These platforms ensure teams have a single source of truth for samples and data while maintaining strict permissions for access control. This provides a means to manage all aspects of a sample lifecycle and eliminate fragmented sample data management systems. With customizable permissions, team members can access relevant data securely, streamlining workflows and enhancing accountability. Our solutions also enable efficient sample retrieval through advanced search functionalities, enabling efficient collaboration across teams. Additionally, our platforms facilitate sample requests and tracking, ensuring full traceability of sample movements. This enhances transparency and maximizes the impact of data utilization across departments or teams, driving impactful outcomes in research endeavors.
