US software giant Microsoft has unveiled plans to acquire Sentillion to further expand its presence in the clinical data management sector.

The acquisition, which is expected to complete next year, will combine Sentillion’s context management and multiple access technologies with the Amalga Unified Intelligence System (UIS) that Microsoft launched in April.
