🧪Interesting read on ELNs and real-world research behaviour fromGavin Allsop.

This article offers an interesting reminder that technology adoption in science is a journey, not a switch.

While Electronic Lab Notebooks are now widely available, the way researchers use them continues to evolve, shaped by habits, workflows, and the realities of day-to-day lab work. Rather than a failure, this highlights a huge opportunity: designing ELNs that fit more naturally into how scientists think, experiment, and collaborate.

The takeaway for me? The future of ELNs is bright, especially as tools become more intuitive, better connected, and more aligned with real research behaviour.

Worth a read for anyone working in life sciences, lab informatics, or research ops 👇https://lnkd.in/eWmT6JHC
