Electronic laboratory Notebooks

Electronic Laboratory Notebooks are a fairly new technology, offering benefits to both individual users and large organisations as a whole. The software, designed to provide an alternative to traditional, paper-based laboratory notebooks, can be used within the lab to document research, experiments and proceedures undertaken in the lab. With these documents acting as evidence should a problem arise the need for secure system is paramount. Implementation of ELN systems can dramatically reduce data storage issues associated with stringent regulatory data retention policies. However, this also means the validation process for such systems can be lengthy.
SMi`s 3rd Annual Electronic Laboratory Notebooks conference provides delegates with essential information relating to previous experiences of the implementation and use of ELN software. Avoid common pitfalls and stumbling blocks by learning from the mistakes of your peers through detailed case studies. Data management will also be addressed, along with the legal framework for such systems.
