The Life Sciences Information Technology Global Institute
LSIT (Life Sciences Information Technology)is a non-profit organization bringing together several industries to build the first Good Informatics Practices (GIP) guidance document to assist IT in 5 areas: compliance, standards, best practices, risk mitigation and return of investment. GIP is the guidance for improving quality and trust of IT within life sciences and healthcare.
GIP guidance document compiles standards in one reference guide for an IT system of a life science or healthcare environment.
All functions within a life science organization require significant use of multiple IT platforms. Their intellectual property, knowledge management and data are on IT systems that must be trusted and secure.
The integration of IT into Life Science and Healthcare has a “real potential for reducing both the time and cost of bringing new medical products from discovery to the patient. The one main inhibiting factor is “trust”. Trusting that these very complexes IT tools, computational processes, and resulting data are, in fact, accurate and scientifically valid, is critical for all stakeholders and gatekeepers alike”.

How can they achieve this goal? By measuring the performance of the clinical trials and the service providers (Lab, EDC and other vendors, R&D …). Read more
