Expert interview - 13/05/2019 Innovation management in the life sciences – Inova DE provides insights Personalized medicine, medical technology, digital health and artificial intelligence are revolutionizing diagnostics and product development. Analyses are becoming faster and more precise, and data volumes can now be networked and used effectively. The goal of improving people's quality of life is within reach, and this will also strengthen Germany’s future viability. However, not every good idea can be turned into a marketable commodity.…https://biopro-v9-test-gi.xanium.io/en/article/news/innovation-management-in-the-life-sciences-inova-de-provides-insights
Article - 23/04/2019 How can care infrastructures benefit from digitization? The pilot project NeCTra (Networking - Care - Transparency) investigates how care processes within an urban social environment can be improved by using digital technologies. The goal is to bring together all partners and institutions in real time so that people in need of care and those seeking advice receive appropriate support more quickly.https://biopro-v9-test-gi.xanium.io/en/article/news/how-can-care-infrastructures-benefit-from-digitization
Article - 18/03/2019 EHR and PHR: digital records in the German healthcare system EHRs, i.e. electronic health records (German: Patientenakte, ePA), are hailed as the key to increasing the quality of care. The Appointment Service and Supply Act (TSVG), adopted on 14th March 2019, requires the German statutory health insurance funds to provide policyholders with electronic health records from 1st January 2021 onwards.https://biopro-v9-test-gi.xanium.io/en/article/news/ehr-and-phr-digital-records-in-the-german-healthcare-system
Article - 07/02/2019 Artificial intelligence in ophthalmology Retinal diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are now treatable. However, it is hard to predict individual disease progression. A group of researchers at the University Eye Centre in Freiburg are currently developing a new system which is hoped will allay fears and improve therapy planning. The system uses artificial intelligence to predict therapeutic outcome from image and patient data. Initial results are already available.https://biopro-v9-test-gi.xanium.io/en/article/news/artificial-intelligence-in-ophthalmology
Dossier - 06/03/2018 Big data - the big promise of the new digitised world Big data is a widely used buzzword in today's information era. The use of big data in the digital world presents both an opportunity and a risk. Mass data is now used and analysed in almost all areas of life. Even the healthcare sector is undergoing extensive digitisation.https://biopro-v9-test-gi.xanium.io/en/article/dossier/big-data-the-big-promise-of-the-new-digitised-world
High-tech - 20/10/2016 Industry 4.0 in the medical technology and pharmaceutical industry sectors The digitalisation of industry affects the entire value chain. From individual products to digitising workflows in companies and connecting companies with clients and service providers via the Internet of Things – Industry 4.0 makes completely new manufacturing processes possible and requires new and specific business models.https://biopro-v9-test-gi.xanium.io/en/article/dossier/industry-40-in-the-medical-technology-and-pharmaceutical-industry-sectors
Dossier - 28/04/2014 Data mining new opportunities for medicine and public health Research and healthcare activities produce huge quantities of data that need to be presented in an understandable structure. This requires computer-assisted extraction of relevant data and the use of statistical methods. This process, known as data mining, enables the discovery of patterns in large data sets. Data mining methods are of particular importance in fields that use high-throughput, visualisation methods and telemedical applications.https://biopro-v9-test-gi.xanium.io/en/article/dossier/data-mining-new-opportunities-for-medicine-and-public-health
Dossier - 25/03/2013 Biotechnology goes automated Processes that previously required pipetting analysis and production to be carried out manually are increasingly now controlled by automated systems. However this has not necessarily involved a complete reinvention of the wheel instead automation systems used in the plant construction and mechanical engineering sectors are being adapted and optimised for application in the life sciences. https://biopro-v9-test-gi.xanium.io/en/article/dossier/biotechnology-goes-automated
Dossier - 01/10/2012 Systems biology understanding complex biological systems Systems biology studies complex interactions within biological systems on the genome proteome and organelle level. Many techniques from the fields of systems theory and associated fields can be used to gain an understanding of the behaviour and biological mechanisms of cellular systems.https://biopro-v9-test-gi.xanium.io/en/article/dossier/systems-biology-understanding-complex-biological-systems
