Summary
This course will be on Electronic Laboratory Notebooks and is aimed at (future) users. Multiple electronic lab notebooks exists. The course will focus on the Cheminfo tools (https://eln.epfl.ch/).
Content
Pre-workshop assignment
- Documentation of current research data management and research workflow (what data are generated, how are they analyzed, stored, and backed up)
- What are the current bottlenecks and pain-points
- What works well?
- Fill pre-workshop survey
- User story of how the ELN should look like
Workshop (10.10.2022, in person in Sion)
- Introduction to the cheminfo ecosystem:
- Philosophy
- Store/retrieve original data
- Extract knowledge
- Publish machine actionable data
- Overview of existing tools in the cheminfo ELN (image analysis, mass spec, ML, XRD, isotherm, export, TGA,  )
- Deep dive into three tools available in the cheminfo ELN
- Interactive discussions:
- What is missing?
- What does not work?
- What would be the best support mechanism?
Post-Workshop
- Submit feature requests, bug reports, ideas
Keywords
electronic laboratory notebooks
