Lesson 5: Project Module Project Management • A project is the work carried out in the laboratory. • A project consists of Assays,designated samples, equipment, laboratory/personnel, and supplies. • An Assay is an experiment to perform within a project. • An assay consists of inputs (samples, reagents, plate record), outputs (run data file, image file, PCR product), and protocols. • A protocol is a series of steps to be followed in order to conduct an Assay. Protocols within a project may also have processes/sub-processes. • A group of pre-defined common genomic assays and protocols are available in the lpgLIMS 1.3 via the template project. • Key Project functions include: 1) project creation, 2) project execution, and 3) project results.
File location To create a project, a manager creates the assays and protocols for the project, assigns the appropriate level of approval, and adds each component to the project tree. The project tree represents all personnel, laboratories, assays, protocols, and samples affiliated with a project. Carton Type Sample Type Lesson 5: Project Module Project Creation Project Details Project Details Tree Navigation Assays
Lesson 5: Project Module Project Execution • Laboratory researchers can only work on projects assigned to them by their laboratory manager • Multiple researchers can work on a project • Experiments are conducted by following the assays, protocols, and processes outlined in the project tree • The researcher creates a run for each assay, creates working stock from the samples affiliated with the project, and performs the assay • Multiple runs can be created for each assay • The researcher logs the status and results (reports, files, images) of each step in the assay
Select project for execution Lesson 5: Project Module Project Execution Tree Log results files to project Project Execution Tree Set approvals Each Assay is performed in 1 or more Run(s) which include designated samples and protocols. The project tree is color coded to reflect the current project status. Project results can be uploaded via the LIMS ftp client to the lpgLIMS 1.3 FTP server.Project results can be logged for cartons or samples.
