In 2017, BIH and Labfolder signed a contract for organization-wide use of the electronic laboratory notebook (ELN) Labfolder.
As a result, all laboratory teams and scientists working at BIH/Charité are able to use Labfolder ELN to optimize data recording and management for free. Just like paper lab notebooks, the data stored in Labfolder belongs to the respective institution where the researcher is employed.
Take full advantage of Labfolder’s extensive features and streamline research documentation, collaboration and compliance within the laboratory.
Integrate all your data directly into your records
Search and filter through full texts to find entries
Customize entries by dragging and dropping different elements
Collaborate with colleagues
Create templates and protocols for recurring workflows
Set up multiple inventories to organize laboratory materials
Securely encrypted via SSL and backed up regularly

Group leaders and group members acting on behalf of group leaders belonging to Charité and (perspectively) MDC must register here for a Labfolder group at the BIH.
Group administrators have the capability to invite their team members, regardless of whether the team member has created their own accounts at the time of invitation. Once invited, your colleagues will receive an email providing instructions on how to register and/or join the group.
To invite your colleagues, please follow the steps below:
After joining your group, you can use your electronic laboratory notebook to collaborate with your colleagues in real-time. Together, you can add entries to common projects, create a shared repository of protocols, comment on each other’s data to improve troubleshooting, and even assign and receive tasks to improve lab efficiency.

Hi, I am Anne, the BIH Account Manager taking care of all BIH related matters. Just briefly about myself: I received my diploma in Plant Biotechnology from the University of Hohenheim and have a PhD in plant developmental biology from the University of Heidelberg. Including research trips to England and Brazil, I have over 6 years of experience working in research laboratories. I joined Labfolder mid-2016 since I am convinced that electronic lab notebooks are the future and fit better with the way of working in modern laboratories. My two favorite features are the advanced search capabilities and team collaboration on research projects.
