Transform Your Lab with Digital Connectivity
Increasing Productivity, Transforming the Lab, & Accelerating Your Science
As a variety of industries and professions strive to increase productivity and enable transparency, they’re making a digital transformation to achieve top priorities. The music industry is a prime example of this, using digital technology to give customers higher-quality files, real-time access to new music, and a greater selection of music. Digital technology is changing the world of consumer products as well, with connected light bulbs, air conditioners, locks, and much more becoming common staples in homes around the world. And in the world of science, researchers are digitally transforming their labs to add greater flexibility — and peace of mind — to their work.
The evolution of modern lab workflows is similar to the evolution that’s already taken place in the music industry: there’s an emphasis on increased productivity, efficiency, convenience, and visibility, all of which are necessary for researchers to be successful. Their focus on the next big breakthrough or key discovery requires them to be closely connected to the lab.
In a recent survey, 60% of respondents said they were already reaping the benefits of using digital technology in the lab, including connected liquid handling products, freezers, refrigerators, and incubators. This equipment allows them to expand the way they work by:
- Simplifying their setup
- Allowing them to monitor their lab from any location
- Providing advanced notifications that help increase productivity and avoid downtime
- Delivering alerts and predictive notifications that allow them to quickly respond to problems
- Keeping data safe with secure storage
- Automatically updating with the newest software
It’s clear that the digital transformation of labs has already started, and it will continue to evolve in exciting ways. By getting ahead of the curve, you’ll be able to bring the benefits of this evolution to your own research and operations. But before you get started, it’s important to understand the available options and how they fit your needs.
With powerful tools and multiple connectivity options, Thermo Fisher Connectivity makes it easy to keep track of your data by allowing you to:
- Automatically upload and store data in your private cloud account from cloud-enabled instruments or your desktop computer
- Remotely monitor instruments and benchtop devices from any location and with any mobile device
- Perform primary and secondary analysis across all your data and projects with a robust toolkit of fast, powerful, intuitive analysis software
- Securely share your work with colleagues and collaborators using group permissions and custom sharing options
- Easily save and synchronize your files to your secure cloud account, scaling your storage as needed
Thermo Fisher Connectivity is available through the Thermo Scientific™ DeviceLink™ Hub and embedded options. The easy-to-install DeviceLink Hub brings cloud technology to your existing refrigerators, freezers, ultra-low-temperature freezers, and CO2 incubators* to help you save time and effort and stay focused on science. And for a more streamlined approach, select equipment is preconfigured with embedded technology that’s ready to use. Both options continuously monitor conditions and provide immediate alerts by email and mobile notifications.
Digital transformation is vital to the future of lab workflows, and labs that don’t adopt new technology may miss key opportunities or work less efficiently than they could while other labs thrive. Digital solutions can help address your lab’s daily challenges while:
- Improving productivity with mobile access to automatically collected and stored data
- Accelerating your science by helping you focus on strategic priorities
- Ensuring peace of mind with remote monitoring and alerts
- Providing easy access to assistance for regulatory compliance, preventative maintenance, and workflow automation
Digital transformation is here to stay, and taking advantage of it can truly change the way your lab operates.
