SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 29, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ --
With this strategic partnership, Biocompare will start offering ad sales on the GeneCards website (http://www.genecards.org), making it simpler for marketers to reach scientists across both platforms through targeted display ads and email opportunities.
GeneCards, the Human Gene Database (http://www.genecards.org), offer detailed user-friendly information on all annotated and predicted human genes. Together with other biomedical databases offered by LifeMap Sciences, it caters to more than 4 million researchers world-wide and is used by more than 3,000 commercial and research institutions including top biotech pharma. GeneCards is developed at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel.
In addition, Biocompare and LifeMap Sciences will begin a data partnership that will offer life science manufacturers an easy solution for enhancing information on their products, including any gene, pathway, transcript, variant or disease specific products. This will make it easier for researchers to find the manufacturers' products on search engines and to categorize products on manufacturers' websites.
"We're very excited about this partnership." says Michael Okimoto, Ph.D., Chief Content Officer of Biocompare. "GeneCards is a great source for in-depth information about genes, pathways and diseases. Combining that with Biocompare's in-depth product coverage makes it easier for life scientists to uncover the right gene-specific tools for their research."
"Partnering with Biocompare will also allow us to enable researchers to have easier access to products that would help them in their research." comments Yaron Golan, CEO of LifeMap Sciences, "The partnership between the two organizations will also create a powerful data solution for manufacturers, leveraging our annotated biomedical data, we can help life science vendors enrich their product data and improve outcomes in their own SEO and on-site marketing".
This partnership will begin immediately; questions regarding any of the solutions mentioned above can be directed to Yaron Guan Golan, CEO at LifeMap Sciences, at yg(at)lifemapsc.com, or Joan Boyce, Vice President and General Manager of Biocompare, at jboyce(at)Biocompare.com.
