Traditional Labs Present Barriers to Experimentation
Life scientists in all sectors face substantial execution-based barriers to conducting experiments, forcing scientists to compromise on pursuing innovative hypotheses.
% Respondents with Instrument Access Problems1
- Over 80% report access to instrumentation as a major impediment to their research
- Most scientists report wishing they had access to more instrumentation
- Maintenance and downtime of available instruments are additional barriers
- Constraints on instrument access directly limit achievement of research objectives
- Lack of access to a wide variety of scientific capabilities can significantly reduce probability of success in lab research goals by limiting ability to work around unplanned scientific barriers
The average new experiment takes at least a month to onboard, hindering a researcher’s agility in meeting research goals utilizing new instruments or methods
- Onboarding frequently stymied due to lengthy troubleshooting
- Delays are unpredictable, with a broad distribution ranging from weeks to years
- Over 30% of respondents said they had suffered a delay greater than six months on a project
1Emerald customer survey, n=130 Scientists from across the industry (mix of startups, large companies, and academia) (2013)
Every Instrument is at Your Fingertips
Science, not instrument availability, drives projects
- Full control of over 150 unique scientific instruments
- Complete list in Scientific Instrumentation
- Experiments start within 24 hours of the moment you submit them, 12 hours on average
- No onboarding time for the 150+ instruments already online and waiting
Minimize time from idea to experiment
Drive all instruments remotely through a software interface
- Instruments and equipment shared at maximum efficiency, with tasks automatically distributed throughout the facility
- All instruments operated at GxP standards with regular maintenance, qualifications and controls
- Dedicated team of scientists on-site to manage any instrument issues that arise
Never fight with broken instrumentation again
Additional instrumentation auto-deployed on demand
- Instruments automatically scale with demand. ECL adds additional instruments to the facility of an existing type whenever utilization exceeds 70%
- ~5 new unique instrument models are onboarded into the cloud every month
- Try them immediately without learning new software or instrument interfaces
Effortlessly stay on the cutting edge
