Biomax Informatics Develops Knowledge Management Solution NeuroCONNECT for Human Brain Project
30.3.2021 15:00:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Biomax Informatics today announced the development of a novel knowledge management and database solution NeuroCONNECT for EBRAINS, the digital research infrastructure created by the EU-funded Human Brain Project.
NeuroCONNECT allows the semantic integration and management of multimodal brain connectivity information and brain atlases in EBRAINS. The new system will be configured in the NeuroXM™ Brain Science Suite of Biomax. Connectome data will be enriched with metadata from anatomical ontologies, brain atlases and demographic information. This way NeuroCONNECT will become a knowledge hub for all connectome data in the EBRAINS infrastructure.
"We are very proud to have been selected as a partner for EBRAINS and the Human Brain Project, the largest and most influential brain science project in Europe," comments Dr. Klaus Heumann, Chief Executive Officer at Biomax Informatics. “With NeuroCONNECT we will make a valuable contribution to EBRAINS and to all research related to brain disorders and mental health issues.”
EBRAINS was launched in 2019 and will continue to be available to the neuroscience community worldwide also beyond the ten-year life of the Human Brain Project.

Philip Morris International Inc. (PMI) (NYSE: PM) today announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued Modified Risk Tobacco Product (MRTP) orders for 20 variants of ZYN nicotine pouch products. These are the first MRTP orders granted for nicotine pouches, allowing PMI U.S. to market the following claim for the authorized ZYN products: “Using ZYN instead of cigarettes puts you at a lower risk of mouth cancer, heart disease, lung cancer, stroke, emphysema, and chronic bronchitis.” “FDA’s decision is an important moment for the more than 45 million legal-age nicotine consumers in America,” saidStacey Kennedy, PMI U.S. CEO. “Today’s news ensures these adultshave access to accurate, science-based information, including FDA-authorized evidence that switching from cigarettes to ZYN reduces the risk of smoking-related diseases like heart disease and lung cancer,” she added. “More broadly, it reinforces the agency’s science-based approach to evaluating products across the co

Archer® Proves Purpose-Built AI Beats General-Purpose LLMs on Regulatory Change Management: 95% Verified Accuracy, 80x Faster, 92% Lower Cost30.6.2026 17:13:00 EEST | Press release
For enterprises deploying AI in compliance, a wrong date is a missed deadline. The more dangerous failure is a wrong answer the model returns with high confidence, one that flows silently into a compliance calendar and is only discovered after the window has passed. Archer® today released results showing purpose-built AI beats a general-purpose large language model (LLM) on regulatory work, and it’s not close. This head-to-head test compared Archer’s purpose-built, vertical-specific AI and proprietary data sets against a leading general-purpose LLM, on a core compliance task: determining the publication, effective and comment-close dates of regulatory documents across six jurisdictions. General-purpose models are a genuine breakthrough, and this is no referendum on their quality. The question Archer set out to answer is narrower and more practical: what it takes to make a specific, high-stakes determination reliable, fast and affordable at scale. A vertical, domain-focused process, gro
