Company Profile

BioFortis is a biomedical informatics company focused exclusively on research information management. The firm provides research data management software solutions for multidisciplinary users at academic, government and biotechnology research institutes. BioFortis’ flagship product, Labmatrix™, was created by scientists, for scientists, as reflected by its intuitive, interactive features. With the ability to easily accommodate virtually any type of data generated during preclinical, clinical and translation research studies, across multiple therapeutic areas, Labmatrix enjoys an enthusiastic and loyal user base. Labmatrix is supported by a dedicated team that includes life science researchers, bioinformaticists, biomedical engineers and information technology professionals. The firm's mission is to enhance biomedical research efforts by providing Labmatrix, a Research Information Management System (RIMS) to conquer the problem of integrating data from disparate sources and querying across the research silos. Labmatrix™ is a queryable, central data repository merging both clinical, genetic and molecular analytical data, in effect coupling data obtained from the clinic with that discovered at the research bench for a true bench-to-bedside approach. It is an internet-based scientific data management application that enables secure collaboration among researchers and multi-site research teams in a manner facilitating HIPAA-compliance. The application includes functionality for managing patient clinical information, workflow tracking, biological sample management, barcoding and storage, support for genetic, family-based research, managing complex genotype and phenotype data, and IRB protocol management. Flexibility is built into Labmatrix to accommodate and integrate virtually any type of data collected during the lifecycle of the research study, making it accessible and searchable in a meaningful way. Labmatrix is designed to be used either as the main Translational Research information hub in a new establishment or as a component of the IT infrastructure, integrated as part of other, existing systems. Labmatrix supports research and sample data derived from clinical investigation, translational research and preclinical studies. Labmatrix can be implemented as part of your research and discovery pathway on an enterprise to lab-level installat
