PLA2024Europe Workshops at your fingertips

The PLA® Conference workshops are synonymous with interactive sessions and discussions with subject matter experts.

Most importantly, these workshops are an opportunity to gain an incredible overview of what the laboratory informatics industry has to offer today. Many PLA® conference attendees have highlighted the benefits of the various workshops as a great alternative to the often overly commercialised one-to-one demonstrations.

It has been our experience that successful organisations ensure that all relevant departments are represented so that they can benefit from the various sessions and discuss their issues live.

Tuesday 12 March 2024  | 15:45 – 16:45 | Gold Workshop in Parallel Session

The introduction of LIMS software is a critical process for the digitisation of every laboratory. Human factor, technology and project governance are just some of the challenges that Lab professionals face for successful implementation.
In this context, the synergy between laboratory and technology partner is the key factor for a seamless transition to a paperless environment.
Eusoft and Zeta Farmaceutici Group talk about best practices to create the perfect chemistry in a path of digitalization of the Lab and present the real case of a LIMS SaaS (Software as a Service) implementation in the cloud for a pharmaceutical company. Read more …

Deep Dive Workshops – a Training opportunity  (2/2)

Wednesday 13 March 2024  | 13:30 – 16:30|  Parallel Training Session

There is no point implementing any computerised system without delivering substantial business benefits.  As a corollary, automating the current analytical process is bad idea as it is likely to be slow and inefficient and automation results in a slow, inefficient and expensive semi-automated process.

Process understanding is a critical but often overlooked component of laboratory automation and digitalisation.  It is unlikely that current business processes in a laboratory can be automated effectively if computerised systems are used in hybrid mode (signed paper printouts of electronic records), paper records are used and manual input to one or more spreadsheets.

Wednesday 13 March 2024  | 13:30 – 16:30|  Parallel Training Session

This deep dive workshop aims for preparing you for the application of laboratory digitisation on a large scale through the use of data and communication standards.
As you go through the session, you will understand the role of data and communication standards in facilitating this process.
The session will begin with an overview of SiLA and AnIML standards. We will then explore the use of repeatable patterns to apply laboratory digitisation at scale and conclude with a live session using real instruments. Read more …
