The Hidden Costs of Bad Data: How Advanced, Curated Genome Databases Accelerate Innovation
-
Plan a trip with an error-filled map and you could end up on a wild goose chase that delays your trip or ends at the wrong destination. Plan your synthetic biology project using an error-filled genome database and your company could embark on a wild goose chase that costs weeks of effort. Most computationally generated genome databases are rife with erroneous annotations. High-quality, manually curated databases can avoid those errors by referencing data directly from experimental literature. By integrating computational inferences with curated data, researchers can save time by utilizing a one-stop shop for information. Join us to learn how to reduce R&D risks and shorten your time to market.
