Because research techniques and laboratory sciences evolve quickly, we are committed to continued improvement to remain at the forefront of the biology ELN market. Our bi-annual product release cycle and diverse partnerships are tailored specifically to help us anticipate and incorporate new workflows, technologies and data types into our product as soon they appear in the sector.

Our Mission 
Rescentris focuses on delivering “IT to improve the ROI of R&D™” – its solutions are designed to enhance productivity and decision-making for scientists and R&D managers all over the world by capturing knowledge and intellectual property and disseminating it as unified and personalized views of enterprise discovery.

Corporate History
In the early 2000s, a number of ELNs were under development for use by chemistry and medicinal chemistry organizations. While these systems were useful in the highly structured chemistry world, it became increasingly clear that biology ELN requirements are very different from chemistry ELN needs in a number of critical areas.

Rescentris was formed in late 2002 to better meet the need for a biology-focused electronic lab notebook for the pharmaceutical and life science industries. Biologists tend to work in highly diverse ways and produce many different types of data, so CERF needed to be more flexible than any existing ELN solution. CERF features a simple drag-and-drop interface and the ability to gather and protect any data from any source, combined with easy workflow template creation, and customizable metadata (used for semantic searches). These allow CERF to adapt quickly to extremely diverse environments. Additionally, the use of cross-platform technologies and open standards allows CERF to connect to other data and systems inside or outside of your organization. Although Rescentris originally developed this strategy of simplicity and flexibility to cater to the diverse needs of biologists, it quickly became apparent that CERF’s adaptability and modular, extensible architecture make it an ideal tool for multidisciplinary research in any sector.

Today Rescentris continues to add new modules and technologies which further extend the ability of CERF to work as a secure, compliant, collaborative, multidisciplinary research tool. By choosing just the modules you need, your organization can create a cost-effective solution for R&D, IP protection, document management and data mining in any regulated research environment.
