Allotrope Foundation

Supporting Partner

Founded in 2012, Allotrope Foundation is an international consortium of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, and other scientific research-intensive industries that is developing advanced data architecture to transform the acquisition, exchange, and management of laboratory data throughout its complete lifecycle.  Its first initiative is the development of the Allotrope Framework for analytical data, consisting of a standard data format, class libraries for interfacing with applications, and semantic capabilities to support standardized, structured metadata.  Allotrope aims to make the intelligent analytical laboratory a reality – an automated laboratory where data, methods and hardware components are seamlessly shared among disparate platforms, and where one-click reports can be produced based on data generated by any analytical instrument, and data integrity is built-   in by design.  Allotrope's vision of an intelligent analytical laboratory will be realized through the creation of an "ecosystem" in collaboration and consultation with vendors and the scientific community.  Our shared mission is to develop new approaches to improve data access, interoperability, and data integrity through standardization which ultimately serves as a key enabler of data-driven innovation.
