Show abstract

We report a lab management concept and its no-code implementation based on general-purpose database services, such as Airtable. The solution we describe allows for integrated management of samples, lab procedures, experimental notes and data within a single browser-based application, and supports custom automations. We believe that this system can benefit a wide scientific audience by offering communication-less retrieval of information, collaborative editing, unified sample labelling and data keeping style. A template database is available at airtable.com/universe/expPcKlB7VCHE6wVK/lab-management.
