Today, Invicro LLC, a Konica Minolta Company, has joined Accenture’s open partner ecosystem—the INTIENT™ Network—which is designed to help solution providers, software vendors and life sciences companies’ team more effectively to accelerate drug discovery and improve patient outcomes. Invicro is a global provider of imaging biomarkers, core lab services, advanced analytics and software solutions for drug discovery and development.

The INTIENT Network is an integral part of INTIENT Research, Accenture’s cloud-based informatics suite that is focused on improving productivity, efficiency and innovation in the drug discovery process. Accenture is currently working with a select number of independent software vendors and organizations, including Invicro, to integrate their technology and content into the INTIENT platform.

Through the INTIENT Network, research scientists can access Invicro’s industry-leading imaging software platforms, iPACS® and VivoQuant®, that help transform the way translational medicine research is conducted. Invicro joining the network contributes to a robust ecosystem—one that offers the most advanced, cloud-based informatics solutions to help accelerate precision medicine studies across all therapeutic areas.

“By providing access to Invicro’s novel software solutions, researchers will easily gain insights from complex biological data at each drug discovery and development phase,” stated Mr. Chris Fuller, Vice President of Software for Invicro. “The advanced and collaborative capabilities offered by Invicro and Accenture will improve operational efficiencies and help streamline drug discovery efforts by using a data-driven approach.”

Invicro’s capabilities will be available to life sciences companies within a common informatics framework that handles core infrastructure requirements such as data ingestion and cleansing, security and IP management, request management workflow, enterprise search, data governance, and collaboration environments.

“Imaging data is enabling some incredible opportunities in early drug discovery, yet there remain challenges around the effective image management, interpretation, and sharing,” said Joe Donahue, managing director, Accenture Life Sciences. “I look forward to working closely with Invicro to leverage their capabilities to help address these challenges which will, ultimately, lead to better outcomes for patients.”

New Evidence Offers Hope for Ketogenic Therapy in Treatment of Anorexia Nervosa3.6.2026 15:00:00 EEST | Press release

A pilot study published today in Communications Medicine demonstrates the potential of a new approach to treating anorexia nervosa — a disorder for which effective treatments have been significantly limited. The research from UC San Diego School of Medicine reports that a ketogenic nutritional intervention — a high-fat, low-carbohydrate, moderate-protein diet — was feasible and safe for patients with weight-normalized and mildly underweight anorexia nervosa. The ketogenic intervention was well-tolerated by participants, with high adherence rates and no significant weight loss observed throughout the program. Furthermore, significant improvements were observed in eating disorder symptoms, with nearly 3 in 4 of study completers in the recovered range at study end, no longer meeting criteria for an anorexia nervosa diagnosis, and all completers experiencing an improvement in depression scores. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com
