New Videos to View
We’re refreshing our online Resource Center with new video clips in which Accelrys experts discuss current industry trends, product benefits and how Accelrys solutions optimize a wealth of scientific enterprise objectives, from R&D cycle acceleration to sustainability intelligence, modeling & simulation, NGS data analysis, electronic laboratory management, project team collaboration and more.
Correction
Accelrys apologizes for an oversight in last month’s feature article announcing our recent whitepaper entitled “Designing Environmental Sustainability into Product Research and Development” (produced by IDC Manufacturing Insights).
The August eFlash article should have stated: “In fact, IDC Manufacturing Insights has found that greener companies perform better financially, and sustainability is directly related to innovation in the manufacturing world.”
