Dashboards

Labguru Dashboards is an add-on solution to the Labguru Electronic Lab Notebook (ELN), designed to help life science researchers centralize, analyze, and visualize their data to generate better and faster insights. As research becomes increasingly data-driven, Labguru Dashboards addresses the challenge of processing large volumes of scientific data by providing a flexible, customizable platform that brings all critical information into one place.

The solution is built for scientists and lab teams who need to make sense of experimental, operational, and logistical data without sacrificing time or accuracy. By combining SQL-based querying, multiple visualization formats, and shareable dashboards, Labguru Dashboards empowers labs to approach big data as a strategic tool rather than an obstacle.

How It Works: Core Workflow

• Select from a constantly updating collection of ready-to-use queries or create new SQL-based queries customized for your lab's specific needs.
• Visualize query results using a wide variety of chart types, including line, bar, column, pie, area, and scatter charts, as well as facts and percentage bars.
• Assemble selected queries into fully customizable dashboards, reposition elements to create the ideal layout, and create as many dashboards as required.
• Share dashboards by posting them to the Labguru workspace for real-time updates, generating unique wallboard links for collaborators or external displays, and exporting reports and images for easy distribution.

Experimental Capabilities

• Process experimental results using custom or pre-made queries to derive deeper insights.
• Further analyze results using Python, C#, or Ruby to answer complex scientific questions.
• Compare results and track progress across experiments by gathering and visualizing datasets side by side.

Operational Management

• Monitor the number of open tasks and current workload per lab member.
• Track experiments waiting for witnessing to ensure compliance and workflow continuity.
• Identify the most frequently used protocols and analyze in-app user activity.

Logistical and Resource Optimization

• Generate equipment utilization reports, including most-used instruments and equipment usage broken down by project.
• Track supply intake, consumption, and expiration rates to minimize waste.
• Identify the most frequently ordered items and calculate material costs per month or per project.

Key Benefits

• Quick implementation: A pre-built query repository allows teams to start working with Dashboards and see results immediately.
• Customization: The solution can be tailored using custom SQL queries, modular dashboard layouts, and a broad range of visualization options.
• Constant, knowledgeable support: The customer success team is composed of scientists with experience across life science fields, available to provide personalized solutions.
• Collaboration and communication: Dashboards keeps all lab members informed by displaying reports on their Labguru homepage and enabling easy sharing with internal and external collaborators.

Labguru Dashboards integrates directly with the Labguru ELN platform, making it a natural extension for labs already using Labguru for experiment management. It is designed to improve team communication, streamline project management, and accelerate research by making data analysis accessible and actionable.
