Critical to the successful manufacturing of a drug is the quality and integrity of the research and development studies that came before it. Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) ensure that data is captured, tracked, and maintained throughout the entirety of your drug discovery, development, bioanalytical, and manufacturing processes. Thermo Fisher Scientific is uniquely positioned to support your business from initial research studies, to bioanalytical development, product manufacturing, and clinical trial analysis.
LIMS software in pharmaceutical labs have different requirements depending on the specifications of the lab. Drug discovery and development requires organizations to be agile in managing diverse types and volumes of data. LIMS for pharma R&D labs require more flexibility, while LIMS for pharma QA/QC labs require a strict adherence to SOPs and regulatory compliance. Pharma LIMS software available from Thermo Fisher are designed to meet the needs of your pharma lab. Selecting the right informatics capabilities to drive your unique drug R&D pipeline can shorten research cycles, and boost your program’s efficiency. Accordingly, our LIMS for pharmaceutical labs have been designed with these different lab environments in mind. Whether you’re developing drug candidates, synthesizing small molecule scaffolds, mutating cell lines to create new biologics, or in the process of bioanalytical studies or manufacturing, we have LIMS solutions tailored to your needs.
It can be a challenge to find a laboratory informatics solution that can support the many different scientific workflows that exist within pharmaceutical research and development.
