2:00-5:00 WikiLIMS™: The Next-Generation in Next-Gen Data Management
Michael Cariaso, Senior Scientific Consultant, BioTeam, Inc.
WikiLIMS™ is a new, flexible interface for capturing, analyzing, and managing research information. This open source laboratory information management system is a novel application of wiki technology. In this 3-hour course, Michael Cariaso will guide you through the functionality of a WikiLIMS and the real-world experiences of researchers using the system. Attendees will explore a unified interface for tracking samples and their analyses across next-generation (Roche FLX, Solexa) and traditional platforms (microarrays, abi3700).

Who Should Attend? Any researcher who collects data can benefit from this interactive course.

Why Attend? From small research labs to core facilities, next-generation sequencers are changing the way data are collected. Managing the volume and complexity of that data is destined to be the next big problem. This course will give you practical information about staying ahead of the data flood and ensuring that your research will be productive.
