New ELN connects experimental context and structured scientific data across R&D workflows, creating an AI-ready foundation for faster, more informed decisions

BASEL, Switzerland, Oct. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Genedata, a Danaher company and leading provider of enterprise software for biopharmaceutical R&D, today launched an electronic lab notebook (ELN) integrated directly into the Genedata platform, connecting experimental context with scientific data across discovery and development. By bringing previously fragmented information into a continuous scientific record, the new capability helps biopharma R&D teams preserve knowledge, make better-informed decisions, and innovate faster.

Unlike traditional ELNs, Genedata’s ELN is embedded natively within the R&D process, supporting end-to-end discovery and development workflows for biologics and other complex modalities such as ADCs, bispecifics, cell and gene therapies, and peptides. It builds on Genedata’s proven data model, linking directly to molecules, samples, process parameters, and assay and analytics results already managed in the platform reducing manual data transfers and eliminating inconsistencies between applications. Experiment documentation remains tied to a candidate’s complete development history — from design and molecular biology through screening, engineering, expression, purification, and analytics to upstream and downstream process development, formulation, and analytical development — providing scientists and AI systems with consistent, traceable data across the full R&D lifecycle.

“As biologics pipelines grow in complexity, decisions and experimental context must be brought together across increasingly diverse workflows”, said Othmar Pfannes, Ph.D., President of Genedata. “While traditional ELNs operate independently and cause knowledge to be fragmented, we solved that issue by aligning underlying data structures, scientific concepts and metadata to ensure information can be consistently searched, analyzed, reused, and leveraged by AI applications.”

The Genedata ELN links experiments to sample identities, properties, lineage, and physical locations, while integrated LIMS and laboratory workflow execution capabilities coordinate requests and tasks across internal laboratories, centralized facilities, CROs, and CDMOs. Connections to laboratory and IT systems, instruments, and robotics further reduce manual data handling and bring documentation closer to laboratory execution.

By bringing ELN, LIMS, sample management, registration, and laboratory workflow execution together across the Genedata platform, the ELN provides built-in data integrity while increasing R&D efficiency. Organizations can now work more coherently and move seamlessly from experimental design to outcomes and decisions. Historical work is easier to revisit, institutional knowledge is fully preserved, and project handovers are simplified. This unified environment also supports data science, predictive modeling, automation, and AI-driven initiatives without the cost and complexity of connecting fragmented systems.

“Genedata is not introducing just another ELN. We are fundamentally rethinking what an ELN should be in the age of AI,” said Othmar Pfannes, Ph.D., President of Genedata. “By natively combining structured data and workflows with experimental context in a single scientific record, the platform delivers a harmonized user experience based on a shared, computationally accessible foundation for AI-driven R&D.”

SCANOLOGY Introduces AirGO Pad for On-Site 3D Scanning, Inspection and Reporting

Published

on

By

HANGZHOU, China, Oct. 31, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — SCANOLOGY introduces AirGO Pad, an integrated mobile measurement platform that brings 3D scanning, inspection and reporting alongside the part being measured. Combining computing, industrial 3D inspection software and touchscreen operation, AirGO Pad works with compatible SCANOLOGY wireless 3D scanners to help operators complete the inspection workflow on-site without carrying a separate laptop.

When inspecting a large component, operators need to move around the part while keeping scan data and measurement controls accessible. Finding a suitable place for a laptop—and returning to it to check results or adjust settings—can interrupt that process, particularly where space is limited. AirGO Pad places the inspection interface on a portable tablet, allowing operators to view data and interact with the software beside the component.

Users can connect a compatible wireless 3D scanner and view 3D data in real time, monitoring scan coverage and quality as they work. They can then align data, perform measurements and inspect results on the same device. During scanning, operators can create comparison points, features and other inspection elements as needed. Preconfigured report templates complete the workflow, enabling standardized inspection reports to be generated directly on AirGO Pad.

The platform’s design supports these transitions between scanning, inspection and reporting. Its high-definition touchscreen keeps model details and measurement results within reach. Operators can use the tablet in handheld mode while moving around the part, then unfold the convertible stand to review results on a suitable surface. A neck strap provides additional support when carrying and operating the device.

“Making a measurement system mobile means considering more than how operators carry the 3D scanner. They also need access to their data and inspection tools beside the part. We developed AirGO Pad to bring these activities together, from reviewing scan data to producing the inspection report,” said a product manager at SCANOLOGY.

AirGO Pad supports SCANOLOGY’s third-generation handheld and wireless optical 3D scanning systems, standard CAD/3D formats and wireless PC synchronization for measurement, annotation and review.
