However, OneNote remains a general note-taking application and has not been designed for scientific purposes. In addition, both surveyed groups preferred OneNote over a scientifically designed ELN (PerkinElmer Elements). Among the ELNs tested, we found that Microsoft OneNote presents numerous features related to ELN best functionalities. We previously analyzed five ELNs and performed two survey-based studies to implement an ELN in a biomedical research institute.
In this regard, electronic laboratory notebooks (ELNs) could be a promising solution to replace PLNs and promote scientific reproducibility and transparency. Current research generates large datasets that can no longer be documented using paper lab notebooks (PLNs). Scientific data recording and reporting systems are of a great interest for endorsing reproducibility and transparency practices among the scientific community.
