Data in Biotech

Data in Biotech is a fortnightly podcast exploring how companies leverage data innovation in life sciences. This week, we’re delighted to be joined by James Winegar, CEO of CorrDyn, a data-driven technology consultancy that helps some of the largest biotechnology manufacturers in the US make smarter strategic decisions by unlocking the value of their data. In this conversation, James and Ross discuss the application of machine learning in biotech manufacturing quality control, their work in providing a custom oligo manufacturer with a data analysis system to track whether certain manufacturing events are anomalous or part of regular operations, and how trust issues between internal teams can lead to conflict, misunderstandings, and ultimately failure to deliver ROI.  --- CorrDyn is the proud producer of Data in Biotech. --- If you’re a biotech company struggling to unlock a data challenge, CorrDyn can help.
