Moving into the cloud: a summary from a European Bioanalysis forum workshop on introducing cloud applications in bioanalytical laboratories

Abstract

In this manuscript, we summarize the discussions and key messages from developed in the e-environment team of the European Bioanalysis forum, which were the basis of a subsequent workshop on cloud applications in a regulated bioanalysis lab environment, hosted by the European Bioanalysis Forum e-environment team at their 16th Open Symposium in Barcelona, Spain in November 2023. The purpose of our discussions is to provide further insight and understanding on the status of having cloud applications implemented in a regulated bioanalysis laboratory and the challenges experienced. The discussions highlight the importance of cross functional collaboration during the entire process of cloud implementation and some of the uncertainties in the different functions' roles and responsibilities.
