Vendor Column: Improving Laboratory Operations with Standardized Informatics Solutions
Date: Aug 21, 2012
Author: Chris Stumpf
Welcome to this fifth in a series of features, in which Waters Corporation's Chris Stumpf focuses on Lab Informatics. Every two months, Chris publishes a new informatics-related article which we hope will build into a worthwhile compendium of informatics material. This month, Chris argues that a laboratory dashboard-style 'business intelligence' approach is the best way forward for the efficient operation of a busy lab, especially when being used by multiple research groups.
