TIBCO Spotfire to Present at Oracle Health Sciences User Group Conference 2010

What: TIBCO Software Inc.'s Director of Life Sciences Industry Solutions for TIBCO Spotfire®, Ben McGraw, will present a session titled "Making Sense of Clinical and Operational Data: The Challenges and Opportunities Facing Drug Development" at the annual Oracle Health Sciences User Group Conference. The conference's goal is to facilitate the exchange of information among users of any products in the Oracle Health Sciences suite.

Session Overview: One of the biggest challenges clinical development teams face is to gain insight from disparate data sources in today's complex drug development environment. Most clinical development teams today are making decisions based on canned business intelligence (BI) reports that contain stale data pulled from incongruent clinical systems. Furthermore, clinical IT is burdened with maintaining numerous, inflexible point-to-point integrations. Mr. McGraw will discuss how these challenges are answered by next-generation analytic products that are easy to use, yet powerful enough to perform predictive analytics.

Attendees will learn:

• How intuitive visual analytics allow clinical development teams to quickly interact with large volumes of operational, clinical, and safety data in a single interface and speed decision making and reduce risk.
• The importance of having access to what-if scenarios and sophisticated analysis that allows researchers to gain key insights into data earlier in the clinical development process.
• How companies are leveraging analytics in the new collaborative drug development model.

Where: The event is being held October 10-13, 2010 at JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort and Spa in San Antonio, Texas.

When: Mr. McGraw will present on Wednesday, October 13, 2010 at 11:05 a.m. local time.
