"Breaking several months of silence, Applied Biosystems' Deborah Smeltzer is finally going public about her plans for the company's new Knowledge Business. Smeltzer has the unenviable task of leading an informatics initiative after a major reorganization and during the peak of the "bioinformatics backlash." In this, her first media interview since her appointment, she sounded clearly focused on the challenging task ahead of her.
"Our objective is to become the Amazon.com of biology," she says. "Think of how easy it is for customers on Amazon to get what they want. Our offerings are much more complex, but scientists deserve the same type of easy access to them.""
“Bioinformatics will be at the core of biology in the 21st century. In fields ranging from structural biology to genomics to biomedical imaging, ready access to data and analytical tools are fundamentally changing the way investigators in the life sciences conduct research and approach problems. Complex, computationally intensive biological problems are now being addressed and promise to significantly advance our understanding of biology and medicine. No biological discipline will be unaffected by these technological breakthroughs.”
