LabVelocity Accelerates

LabVelocity.com, an online resource offering news, product information, and protocols to the life science community, is undergoing a transformation. As of Feb. 5, users can subscribe to ResearchLink, an enhanced version of the original site, and/or to Jellyfish, LabVelocity's popular sequence analysis software package; both were previously available free of charge. The San Francisco-based company is offering a 30-day free trial subscription to new and current users; the response to the trial per

Like the original site,1 ResearchLink offers parametric searches that link products to related product and protocol information. "We feel very strongly that the easiest way to find products, in terms of how a scientist thinks about them, is by their functional features. So you can search for products based on their features," says Alison Martin, vice president, marketing. For example, a scientist looking for a specific cloning protocol may not know about a new plasmid ideal for that protocol. "That protocol will be linked not only to the specific vector, but also to all of the related products," Martin explains.

ResearchLink also offers automated MEDLINE alerts with encryption for enhanced security; personalized information management through "My Files," which also allows information sharing between ResearchLink subscribers worldwide; and the ability to generate online order forms. An enterprise version of ResearchLink integrates directly with companies' existing purchasing systems.
