Demonstrating eLabFTW: A Free and Open-Source Electronic Laboratory Notebook
In this session, we will explore eLabFTW, an open-source Electronic Laboratory Notebook (ELN) designed to meet the diverse needs of research groups across a range of disciplines, including chemistry, biology, physics, and more. eLabFTW provides secure storage and management of scientific data, ensuring the integrity, confidentiality, and probity of results through advanced features such as qualified timestamping, cryptographic signatures, and comprehensive audit logs.
Adopted by leading research institutions like the CNRS, Institut Curie, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, and IRD, eLabFTW has undergone rigorous security audits and risk analyses. The platform offers flexible deployment options, including SecNumCloud-qualified secure hosting, as well as local installation for complete control.
During this demonstration, attendees will learn how to use eLabFTW and explore customization options to enhance their research workflow. We will discuss the laboratory inventory system, scheduler, and other features. We will also consider ways in which eLabFTW can support the goals of the open science movement via the .ELN file format, encourage compliance with data integrity standards, and facilitate the generation of FAIR data. Join us to learn how this free and open-source solution can transform the way research labs manage and protect their scientific data.
