Quartzy: Free lab management for life scientists July 15, 2010

In the lab where I’m doing PhD in genetics had to purchase a lab management software in order to make these processes clear inside the lab. That’s why it’s a shame I only discovered Quartzy, a free lab management tool for life scientists, now.
Quartzy, a company founded by two Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons alumni, is garnering wide acceptance in the Life Science community. Quartzy is an online lab management tool that offers a new way to streamline the acquisition and cataloguing of reagents and other supplies that scientists need to conduct experiments. It also offers a standardized mechanism to organize laboratories and improve communication among scientists.
A very good and usuful software. and and incredibly … is free.

I think it is about time that that lab management software has finally become more popular with and more available to life scientists. For the last two years, we at BioKM (www.biodata.com) have been talking with many academic labs, emphasizing the importance and benefits of online laboratory management. BioKM offers a free account where a researcher can manage up to 3 projects. The software is online with no need to download anything and is completely ad-free. Our goal is to help researchers manage their data, so we specifically aim to keep all our academic plans inexpensive and affordable.
