Electronic Lab Notebooks in the Cloud for Research and Instruction

Implementing a cloud-based Electronic Lab Notebook for instruction and research leads to interesting challenges regarding access, interinstitutional collaboration, security, FERPA compliance, and data management. This panel will present the Cornell University ELN pilot with instructional and research participants, share research outcomes, and describe the transition from pilot to campus service.

OUTCOMES:
Learn why ELN systems are attractive to users and cost-effective. | Understand the benefits and drawbacks of using ELNs. | Understand the factors of implementing digital and cloud-based ELN systems.
