Spreadsheets are not a Database! Benefits to using a LIMS for Biobanking

As the capability and need for researchers to collect large volumes of samples has grown, biobanking has become a critical research practice. Obtaining and storing these samples is just the beginning; documenting sample location, history, usage, storage conditions, chain of custody, associated study and research data, and more, in a way that is safe, consistent, and usable is presents a major challenge to the modern laboratory.

Many labs turn to familiar spreadsheet programs to track biobanking data, but a robust LIMS offers many benefits and decreases the odds of data disaster. 

In one hour, learn the advantages of implementing a Laboratory Information Management System to manage your biobank, decrease errors, and increase efficiency and data integrity.
