SynapseSM has made it possible for OTT to reach a wider business market by matching its portfolio to the research interests of biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. OTT is able to proactively market and provide individualized and targeted information to companies that were unaware of the scientific possibilities available to them at NIH and FDA. SynapseSM can also be used to address other research and development challenges, including patent prosecution and enforcement, searching for experts, and portfolio management.
