3 AGILENT IN ACADEMIA: DRIVEN TO CONNECT Academia is a highly interactive and interdisciplinary place. And while great advances can be discovered in isolation, academia itself as well as the society it serves moves forward most effectively when it does so as a whole. Strong connections are essential for maintaining that forward progress. Agilent s commitment to academia strives to promote outcomes that reach well beyond simply gathering data. We intensively develop resources for cultivating close collaborations and encouraging a culture of open scientific exchange and educational achievement. The world of measurement is changing. As new technologies blur the lines between physical, chemical, electrical, and biological measurement, more and more breakthroughs are interdisciplinary achievements. With recognized leadership across measurement disciplines, Agilent is uniquely positioned to supply academia with transformative technology for research that transcends traditional boundaries. Because at Agilent, we believe the most interesting science is the science that s still ahead of us.

4 AGILENT IN ACADEMIA: DRIVEN TO CONNECT BY ESTABLISHING DEEP PARTNERSHIPS Agilent maintains a rich spectrum of resources that support productive collaboration. Available programs include collaborative opportunities that span internships, advance access to emerging technologies, and, on a very select basis, funding of promising research. We continually seek opportunities to help customers develop uniquely enabling solutions to their challenges. Through contributions of expertise, products, and financial assistance spanning many fields of endeavor, Agilent strives to promote and strengthen enduring partnerships, educate the next generation of researchers, inform our own development efforts, and contribute to significant advances and publications. AGILENT THOUGHT LEADER PROGRAM With the Thought Leader Program, Agilent recognizes and promotes the potential of leading-edge research. Through this program, we select a few very influential academic researchers in well-defined focus areas to receive support in the form of access to products including our best-in-class life science solutions and analytical instrumentation as well as funding and expertise. BY PROVIDING UNRIVALED TECHNOLOGY Advanced technologies are critical for reliable measurement, and for generating the data that fuel discovery. Agilent s portfolio encompasses uniquely enabling hardware and automation solutions for unrivaled precision and data generation, as well as software solutions for extracting insight from those results. Agilent s leading world-class technologies such as high speed data digitization for time-of-flight mass spectrometry, chip-lc chromatography, inkjet printing for high-density microarrays, capillary and lab-ona-chip electrophoresis and advanced informatics solutions enable researchers to perform a wide range of experiments, from routine analysis to cutting-edge research, such as Integrated Biology. INTEGRATED BIOLOGY A UNIQUELY ENABLING DISCOVERY PLATFORM Agilent is the only provider to offer an Integrated Biology solution a powerful combination of world-leading technology platforms and robust informatics that allows sophisticated researchers to overcome the challenges encountered in isolated single omics studies. Using the concept of the biological pathway as a guiding principle, Integrated Biology incorporates prior knowledge about the biological system and integrates complementary layers of data from the genome, transcriptome, proteome, and metabolome.

5 BY BEING THERE WHEN IT MATTERS MOST Agilent s reputation for superior post-sales support doesn t just set us apart from our competitors. It is symbolic of our belief that making a sale is where successful outcomes begin not where they end. Agilent pursues opportunities to work with customers throughout their discovery workflows in order to ensure their success, through collaborative method development, first-rate scientific and technical support, and experienced field support. BY PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE AGILENT INVESTS IN TOMORROW S TECHNOLOGY Agilent Research Laboratories was established to develop powerful new tools that support breakthrough science and technologies. Our focus here is the creation of new solutions in the fields of chemical analysis, bio-analytical measurements, and diagnostics. By concentrating technological development in those areas that show the greatest potential for enhancing customer value, Agilent Research Laboratories serves as a cornerstone of the company s culture of innovation. AGILENT INVESTS IN TOMORROW S MINDS Resources and programs such as the Academia webpage, teaching tools, internships, campus events, and student sponsorship program exemplify Agilent s commitment to being a valuable resource to the academic community. TOMORROW S SCIENTISTS PROGRAM Supporting universities in their efforts to prepare students for real-world achievement, this program provides educators, researchers, and students at qualifying institutions around the world with resources ranging from special investments and grant-writing tools to classroom resources such as slides sets, lab wall posters, primers, and online learning tools.
