LIMS in town. Bika Health LIS

Valuable discussions are developing at the new LinkedIn LIMS Circus, and the Bika Health project page was published at Plone.org last week


From Lemoene's desk: I started LIMS Circus as discussion forum encouraging freedom of expression and information-rich discussion sans marketing amid mostly business-like LinkedIn LIMS groups. To Slashdot's science forum's lofty ideals, and thank you, some humour. Thus far with no opportunity missed to counter FOSS misunderstandings. All content posted is the sole responsibility of the person from whom it originated;-) LI is not everybody's bag, please consider joining to add weight, or drop your witty pennies and insights. Lab feedback is currently being sought on Sample COC and Storage. Beware of LI's fragile UI, I prepare texts elsewhere before posting. Accreditation and QC groups with less proprietary ownership are more credible. Forum spam headaches remain. ISO 17025 - Laboratory Accreditation ISO/IEC 17025 & ISO 15189 - Laboratory Accreditation ISO/IEC 17025 : Accreditation of testing and calibration laboratories See you at the Circus!	Plone.org/products/bikahealth/ The Plone project page for Bika Health 3, was approved and published last week, featuring Health 3.1.5. Health 3.1.6 is nearing completion in Github and Jira, we'll keep the Plone page in (reasonable;-) sync. LIMS and LIS Many texts differentiate between LIMS and LIS with the latter applied to clinical laboratories, including patients, doctors and case management. Where the context requires, expect to see more mentions about Bika LIS. Bika LIMS is suitable for ISO 17025 approved chemistry and microbiology laboratories, in agriculture, food and beverages, geochemistry, water quality management and more. Bika LIMS can be interfaced with analysers in these disciplines, ERP and accounts packages. Bika Health LIS adds CLIA compatible health care functionality: Patients, Medical History, Doctors, Referring Institutes, Clinical Cases, and interfaces clinical instruments and EMR or hospital systems. It also forms the basis of upcoming Bika branch for bioinformatics and biobanking, and in veterinary settings is used with animal subjects and veterinarians in the patient and doctor roles.
