Come & Stand With Nepal Quake Victims, Urges Aequor

The toll is rising every hour and is already well over 3,000. Nepal and its people are coping with regular strong aftershocks, rains, trauma & anxiety of finding the whereabouts of their relatives and a government that is not equipped to fight such a disaster alone.

As per the reports from U.S. Geological Survey, the quake was centered near Lamjung, a district about 80 km northwest of Kathmandu. But the relief is yet to reach the area most severely hit by quake since few roads connecting it to Kathmandu are cut by many small landslides.

Despite all the odds, relief efforts are being undertaken and rescuers are trying hard to look for survivors in the wreckage of buildings.  So as Nepal fights the aftermaths of worst earthquake to have hit the country in 80 years, Aequor stands in support of the #NepalQuake victims.

Aequor BioIT15 Journey Comes to an End

Call us old-fashioned but our presence at BioIT15 reinstated our belief that there’s no substitute for in-person interaction at a live event (really)!

Bio-IT World Conference & Expo event closed on April 23, 2015. In a span of 3 days i.e. from April 21-23, our BioIT participation gave us one of the rare chance to meet and interact with some of the best people in the industry and learn the technologies, research, and regulatory issues of Bio-IT, life sciences, clinical and pharmaceutical industry. In all, attending Bio-IT World Conference & Expo 2015 was a riveting experience for Aequor.

We could do a lot of networking (which was one of our topmost priorities) besides learning & sharing information on topics that were relevant and interesting. Moreover, there were captivating talks, presentations and keynotes from the industry and academia on latest trends in knowledge management, data generation and IT in life sciences and drug development driving biomedical research and the drug development process.

Being one of the premier events held in the Unites States, BioIT unites more than 3k life sciences, pharmaceutical, clinical, healthcare, and IT professionals from more than 32 countries. The 2015 Expo featured the countless applications of IT and informatics to biomedical research and the drug discovery enterprise.

For making this possible, we would like to extend our sincere thanks to the organizers of BioIT and our industry peers who stopped by and interacted with us at Aequor #Booth 235.
