Biolog-id LLC, a developer and service provider of connected healthcare solutions, announces today its partnership with The Community Blood Center, the sole provider of blood, platelets and plasma to nearly 30 hospitals throughout the Midwest. Committed to providing the highest safety and quality blood products, The Community Blood Center will deploy biolog-id’s technology to further improve platelet manufacturing, documentation, and inventory availability.

Due to their short shelf life (5-7 days), these lifesaving blood products require high manufacturing standards and optimized inventory management to maximize availability and minimize waste. Biolog-id’s platelet lifecycle management solution enhances operational excellence by optimizing throughout, streamlining documentation, and improving visibility to current and future inventory. This solution was developed to support multiple platelet manufacturing strategies based on the new FDA guidance.

“We are excited to have The Community Blood Center join the growing family of innovative blood centers who trust our solution,” said Amit Mayer, Chief Innovation Officer at biolog-id. “We are proud to support the challenging and critically important role of these blood centers for their hospitals and their communities.”

“The extremely short shelf life of platelets makes this a precious and critical resource, donated by committed blood donors,” said Kristine Belanger, Chief Operating Officer and Vice President, Operations at The Community Blood Center. “Our obligation is to get these, and all products, to the patients who rely on them in the most effective way possible. The biolog-id technology allows us to improve the efficiency of this process and help us fulfill our obligation to donors and patients.”

A customer-centric innovation focus, and a flexible technological platform, allows biolog-id to adapt its solution to the changing conditions of the healthcare landscape. The ability to easily configure its solution across different facilities, organizations and countries has been key to the expanding customer base in the US and worldwide.

Altasciences and Evidence Matters Advance AI-Driven Drug Development With Nonclinical Automation Breakthrough7.7.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release

Altasciences, a fully integrated early-phase drug development organization, and Evidence Matters, a pioneer in clinical trial data science, are pleased to announce a successful proof-of-concept (POC) of RegulatoryFlow (“RegFlow”), following the announcement of the companies’ strategic collaboration in August 2025. The POC demonstrated the extension of AI-driven efficiencies from clinical reporting into nonclinical workflows, marking a significant step forward in accelerating drug development timelines. Building on proven results in clinical reporting, where the collaboration has achieved up to first-draft clinical study reports (CSRs), the teams have now successfully applied similar AI capabilities to nonclinical data through high-quality parsing of raw and SEND datasets in a proof-of-concept. This advancement aligns with the Altasciences Acceleration Platform, designed to fast-track drug development across the early-phase development continuum. “This milestone reflects the power of in
