Case Study: Tech-Savvy Biologists Company achieves faster, cloud-based CRISPR screening with Elucidata's Polly

Tech-Savvy Biologists Company - Customer Case Study

Tech-Savvy Biologists Company needed a more user-friendly way to run CRISPR screening analyses without the installation hassles, command-line complexity, and limited processing power of tools like MAGeCK VISPR. Elucidata’s Polly CRISPR Screening offered a cloud-based alternative designed for tech-savvy biologists and bioinformaticians who wanted a simpler, more collaborative workflow.

With Elucidata’s Polly CRISPR Screening, the company gained an interactive, cloud-hosted MAGeCK-based platform that speeds up processing, supports multiple comparisons at once, restores past analyses, enables sharing and collaboration, and includes dashboards for cross-comparison insights and sgRNA removal. The case study highlights up to 2x faster processing versus a local Intel Core i5 2.5GHz, 4 GB RAM computer, along with clearer workflow customization through an IPython notebook.
