BioData, producer of Labguru, the web-based research and lab management service, has announced the appointment of Steve Yemm as the company's new CEO, succeeding Nils Drache who, after two and half years as CEO, will continue to be involved as a member of the company board.
Steve Yemm has been BioData's Vice President of Sales for the last two years. During this time the company transitioned from a business-to-consumer model for purchase by single users, to one that delivers SaaS software solutions for institutions and companies in the life sciences. BioData's flagship product Labguru is a secure, web-based Electronic Lab Notebook (ELN) which records and manages laboratory data and inventory, helping labs to run more efficiently.
With two decades of experience in the scientific data management industry, Steve brings an impressive sales and management record to BioData. A chemist by training, he has led field-based organisations for CambridgeSoft and IDBS, worked on global account strategy for Symyx Technologies and established the European and Asia-Pacific business of Core Informatics. Throughout his career, he has worked with clients across the world to successfully tackle informatics challenges and increase laboratory productivity.
With Labguru, scientists can design experiments and workflows, capture structured and unstructured data, manage projects, and share their work. Customisable experiment templates, integration of protocols, SOPs, and other cutting-edge features help to increase data quality, streamline workflows and reduce costs.
BioData is part of the Digital Science portfolio of companies all working together to help researchers make a difference.
