The amazing ’90s saw the emergence of genomic technologies and it’s wide ranging repercussions in global pharmaceutical and biotech discovery efforts that were beginning to embrace genomics in their in-house research. Genelogic has been a key innovator and one of the earliest industry adopters of genomic technologies, knowledge databases, discovery platforms since the early 90’s and continue to do so in the changing face of genomics. This has laid strong roots to provide the widest range of genomic services which we are now able to offer to global Pharmaceutical, Biotech and Research Organizations.

We believe in sustained innovation which is reflected through our key scientific patents and publications in priority areas like gene expression profiling, pattern discovery, biological data management & analysis. Gene Logic works closely with regulatory bodies such as FDA and Institutional Review Board (IRB) to assess the application of quality control metrics and data standards.

Gene Logic has built processes and systems that deliver the highest quality, reproducible data available. Typically this optimization comes with a price, lack of flexibility. However, that is not true at Gene Logic. Our internal research programs challenged the lab with new sample types and limited RNA amounts. Samples were provided from multiple sites under timelines that kept changing. We built our system to handle these issues. We have an on-site Biorepository, we painlessly accumulate samples until they are ready. Want to handle FFPE samples? We have developed and validated how to process them. Not sure which platform to use? We have run samples on Affymetrix, Agilent, Illumina and ABI TaqMan®, we can provide you with some of our experience. Not sure which gene to use as a control? We can mine our internal data and come up with some suggestions. Need flexibility? We do that everyday.

Gene Logic is the acknowledged leader in providing high quality genomic data. Our laboratories generate the data that is the reference standard used by the major pharmaceutical companies. The Federal Drug Agency (FDA) is using data generated by Gene Logic as their reference standard. Our clients are all repeat customers.

Our data quality derives from extensive experience and a focused commitment to meet the needs of our internal target discovery and biomarker development teams. We have processed hundreds of sample types across thousands of arrays, we compared results across samples and across batches. We modified techniques and determined quality metrics at each processing stage. Our bioinformaticians reviewed the final data to determine successful processes. We meticulously detail all our activities, constantly learning and validating approaches. This multiyear commitment enabled us to define an unmatched collection of success parameters. Our Quality Assurance programs validate that the established procedures and protocols were followed and that QC metrics have been determined. New methods undergo rigorous testing and their results are compared to previous work before the method is certified. That’s why we have the best Data Quality. And we treat client samples as if they were ours, they are handled the same way.

Gene Logic started running genomic platforms over 12 years ago for our own target discovery and biomarker development programs. In addition to being one of Affymetrix’s first clients, we were asked and agreed to help co-develop an array with them. Since that start we have successfully processed hundreds of sample types from FFPE to whole blood. We have run samples on over two hundred thousand arrays! We have completed hundreds of data analysis projects for our clients. We are GLP compliant and have run many successful clinical trials. External audits by clients have confirmed our compliance.
