The development of the Public Health Research Data Management System
van Gaans et al. of the University of South Australia and James Cook University needed a system that provides data management functionality for the specific needs of a public health research organization, including data sharing and reuse. They needed a system that would "ensure that: data that are unmanaged be managed, data that are disconnected be connected, data that are invisible be findable, [and] data that are single use be reusable, within a structured collection." In this journal article, the group documents the development of their answer: the Public Health Data Management System (PHRDMS).

LIMS for diagnostic & research labs involved in molecular, cytology, histology, NGS, NBS, translational medicine & bio-banking
Modern specialty diagnostic laboratories need an integrated LIMS that can handle molecular diagnostics, cytology, histopathology, NGS, FLOW, biochemistry, genetic cytology (Cyto / FISH)and microbiology related processes in a single system. Advanced detection of mutations, abnormalities in cells, chromosomes, karyotypes, DNA, gene, enzymes studies and biomarkers are very helpful in identification of potential source of disease and better patient care.
