Erin Bedford is a PhD student in Chemical Engineering at the University of Waterloo and in Chemistry at the Pierre and Marie Curie University (Paris VI) in a co-supervised program. I’ve always had a ...

It seems like there are a good number of people around here working in research, so I thought I could get some good suggestions. Lately I've been thinking that using a electronic notebook could be ...

Laboratory managers have several responsibilities, including keeping a record of everything that happens, especially their findings. However, manually tracking reports and data using paper notebooks ...

The breakdown of traditional R&D silos in biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies has accelerated the drug discovery and development process, but it has also led to an increased need for robust ...

Electronic laboratory notebooks (ELNs) were developed to keep track of experiments and data so that scientists could review their work in a single place and easily reproduce experiments. Many ELNs ...

Today it is commonplace for scientists and engineers to generate much of their data and analysis by computer. Yet in most instances laboratories continue to maintain bound laboratory notebooks. While ...

Many scientists will be familiar with the electronic lab notebook (ELN) as a piece of digital software that allows scientists to digitally record details of their experiments in software, as opposed ...

Scientists have long depended on pen and paper to record their observations, filling volumes of lab notebooks with their work. While Charles Darwin’s drawings and diagrams or Albert Einstein’s ...

The use of electronic laboratory notebooks should be supported by all concerned. Too often when errors or cases of fraud occur in science, the lab data required to reconstruct what happened have gone ...
