The life sciences industry has always generated enormous amounts of data. In a digital age, data proliferation in life sciences is more vigorous than ever, to the extent that data may be as essential to a company’s value proposition as its pipeline, products, or research and development (R&D).

The update to V9.0 includes several key changes aimed at improving the overall quality of veterinary care and prioritizing animal welfare.
