Popular opinion is that two big shifts have changed the game for bioinformatics. The first is a technology development—single cell ‘omics—that began just over 10 years ago, the other is a more recent move to a new model of drug discovery that looks to leverage the vast amounts of human genetic data now being generated in support of precision medicine.
TetraScience, the R&D Data Cloud company, announced today that Paradigm4, an integrated scientific data analytics company, has joined the Tetra Partner Network (TPN) so that pharmaceutical customers can accelerate research decision-making using Tetra Data as a foundation for analytical computing.
Paradigm4’s REVEAL Integrative Analytics platform enables Alnylam Pharmaceuticals to discover novel, genetically-validated drug targets from population scale biobank genotype-phenotype datasets and underlies the pace and productivity of Alnylam’s RNAi therapeutics pipeline.
Metabolomics—often referred to as the youngest of the omics—provides key insight into phenotype. However, bulk metabolomics requires the homogenization of the sample and is thus unable to discern metabolic differences at a cellular level.
