Rancho BioSciences and BT to provide big data cloud services to life sciences sector

San Diego, California, July 14, 2015 . – Rancho BioSciences, the Data Curation Company, today announced that they will work with BT to provide cloud-based data curation services to their joint customers.

Data curation is important for life sciences companies and academia to be able to extract important information from massive amounts of data.Rancho BioSciences curates life science data such as clinical data, case report forms, protocols, molecular data, phenotypic data, target and pathway knowledge, assays, medical records and claim forms.Rancho has a strong track record of term mapping, building ontologies and dictionaries in order to better organize and harmonize disparate data.

BT provides a secure cloud infrastructure for data curation using its BT Connected Science platform. The data curation services from Rancho BioSciences will provide manual data curation services for public and internal data sets accessed through BT’s cloud services globally. Some of these data sets may come from data fed into public and third-party applications such as tranSMART, and other scientific tools that BT has deployed in the cloud.

“Many of our customers are looking for hosted solutions of open source platforms that include third party tools, and BT was an obvious fit for Rancho because of their existing ecosystem of partners and their innovative vision of the cloud of clouds.” said Julie Bryant, CEO for Rancho BioSciences. “We feed platforms such as tranSMART with manually curated content from the public domain and internal sources that can then be used for analysis in a variety of platforms hosted by BT.By providing organized, clean data that is easy to find it leads to better quality analyses and empowers scientists within their organizations to self-serve when looking for information.”

”There is so much data being produced by companies and academia around the world, and there is a pressing requirement from the life sciences sector to be able to use technology more creatively to turn that data into actionable insight,” said Hubertus von Roenne, Vice President Global Industry Practices at BT Global Services. “By bringing the data curation services from Rancho BioSciences into the applications ecosystem that we already host on our BT Connected Science cloud platform, we enable great transformation opportunities within the life sciences industry.We are proud to be able to do this with clear commitments on application performance, security and attention to compliance requirements. This is a great example of our cloud of clouds vision at play.”
