Presentation on the Chemtools LaBLog electronic notebook system and how I think it could fit into a larger ecosystem of tools and services.

1. The Chemtools LaBLog Recording research in the real world Cameron Neylon Contributions from Jeremy Frey, Andrew Milsted, Steve Wilson, Simon Coles, Mark Borkum, Jenny Hale, and others

3. A small challenge… Can anyone name or identify a paper in which it is possible to completely and precisely replicate the data analysis, including availability of raw data, full details of tools, version, and parameters for data analysis, and version (or date) of any databases used in the analysis.

4. A blog as the lab book http://chemtools.chem.soton.ac.uk/projects/blog / “Bio Blogs” http://blogs.openwetware.org/scienceintheopen Discussion

5. One item – one post (1I-1P) system

6. 1I-1P gives every sample a URI

7. 1I-1P relationships between posts An rdf dump of posts and links between them rendered using Welkin (simile.mit.edu/welkin)

8. 1I-1P relationships between posts

10. Templates provide ease of use and consistent metadata [table] [row] Lane[col]Sample[col]ul [/row] … [row] 4[col] [[Dna:%]] [col] [[box]] [/row] … [/table] [[Section>Procedure]] [[Procedure_Type>electrophoresis_agarose]] [[Sandpit_group>DrexelDemo]]

14. Automatic Blogging by Machines

17. Visualisations and communication

23. Linking it all up Unstructured Unfiltered Arbitrary vocabulary Structured Filtered Controlled vocab Primary lab book Autoblogging instrument Published paper Database entry Personal journal Raw data Data processing
