LE0145 : Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS)

This practical and highly-interactive course includes
various practical sessions and exercises. Theory
learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art
simulators.
The LIMS is an evolving concept, with new features and
functionality being added often. As laboratory demands
change and technological progress continues, the
functions of a LIMS will likely also change. Despite these
changes, a LIMS tends to have a base set of
functionality that defines it. That functionality can roughly
be divided into five laboratory processing phases, with
numerous software functions falling under each.
This course is designed to provide participants with a
detailed and an up-to date overview of laboratory
information management system (LIMS). It covers the
laboratory work flow and sample flow chart; the smart
lab, lab automation and lab informatics; and the LIMS
including its basic concept, evolution and trends.
Further, the course will discuss the various types and
benefits of LIMS application, ELN, LES, SDMS and LIS;
the LIMS environment, architecture and features; the
proper selection of LIMS; the LIMS preparation,
implementation and validation; and building LIMS
efficiently.
