Modern Lab Documentation with Electronic Lab Notebooks

Short description of the course:
Good research requires structured and detailed documentation in order to be reproducible and sustainable. To ensure this requirement, laboratory notebooks are kept according to guidelines of good scientific practice. To overcome the disadvantages of traditional analog lab notebooks, such as lack of search functions and secure backups, numerous digital alternatives, so-called electronic lab notebooks (ELN), have been developed. This course gives an insight into the world of electronic lab notebooks and introduces the elabFTW system as one example.
