Full-Circle MS Workflow Automation at Novartis
In this webinar, Novartis will show how they are digitalizing and fully automating systems across large molecule R&D. By integrating liquid handling systems, mass spectrometers, and the Genedata Biopharma platform, Novartis has implemented a ‘full-circle’ mass spectrometry (MS) workflow automation for standardized analyses. Their automated MS workflow includes analytics requests by laboratory scientists, barcoding, sample preparation, mass spectrometry, data analysis, and reporting. Automating repetitive tasks increases efficiency and allows scientists to focus on more complex projects and advanced sample analytics.
Join Felix Stemmer, Senior Scientist II, and Martin Jockel, Senior Expert in Data Science, from Novartis as they illustrate how they are streamlining processes and accelerating operations.
