After a successful test phase, eLabFTW is now offered centrally to all UHH members.
Individual users can get started right away, and so-called teams can be set up for groups. eLabFTW can support the documentation of the planning, execution, and evaluation of scientific experiments and facilitate location-independent and collaborative work in the laboratory. In addition, they are constantly working in relevant departments to promote good scientific practice (guidelines for ensuring good scientific practice: "Continuous, research-accompanying quality assurance refers (...) to the maintenance of laboratory notebooks.") and research data management.
The eLabFTW service page of the UHH will be expanded with information in the near future. The official instructions, documentation/FAQ, and YouTube of eLabFTW can be found here.
The CRDM is the central contact and is happy to provide support, for example, in creating a new team in eLabFTW. Please contact us email to forschungsdaten@uni-hamburg.de, subject eLabFTW(forschungsdaten"AT"uni-hamburg.de?subject=eLabFTW)
