Why do I need LABpilot
Q: Why do I need the LAB pilot software? I already have a spreadsheet, a statistics- and a graphics program?
A: LABpilot is none of these. LABpilot is a data navigation program for interpreting your data.
Q: I thought I had my spreadsheet and statistics program for that?
A: Interpreting is about thinking. About quickly scanning through your data in order to grasp the underlying pattern. It is important to be able to extract complex relationships and to use your experience, insight and knowledge for data navigation.
Q. How can one program help me with all that?
A: It is important to understand why LABpilot was developed: When doing biological research we are trying to understand the interrelation between several different variables. We need to look at the individual data in a fast and efficient way. We want to visualize, compare and compute. The spreadsheet and statistics programs are simply too slow and the graphics programs are made for that stunning graph – once we get all the numerical data together.
The company felt a need for a new tool that can integrate all these features into one program. That is why LABpilot was created. What we were looking for was something that works like our brain - in pictures, not numbers. Something so fast that we can formulate a hypothesis and test it immediately!
Q: I am starting to see how easy it would be to have just one program instead of a statistics program, a spreadsheet and then a graphic program to put all the data into afterwards... But the truth is that I feel comfortable with what I have because I have had it for a long time now. I feel I know it and I do not feel like working a lot of extra time just to get five years of work into LABpilot and then having to learn a new program on top of that. It is so much easier just sticking to my old programs.
A: The five years of data stored in your old programs would not take long to transfer into LABpilot! Just copy your spreadsheet columns and paste them into LABpilot – you will not only have them stored as numerical data, they can instantaneously appear as graphs as well.
When it comes to learning a new program, you only need to spend some time with the simple tutorial on the LABpilot CD to notice how easy and user friendly LABpilot really is! The few extra hours you will put on learning LABpilot will be worth it; you put in a few hours in the beginning – you save many hours later!
Q: When you eventually want to present your findings, is it possible to save your work in Power Point for example?
A: It is not only possible it is very easy! When LABpilot was developed one important issue was to be able to present your data easily with it. The program is so fast and easy that you can always discuss your data in front of the computer screen. You can even lecture from LABpilot using a laptop and a data projector. If you get an interesting question you can reanalyze your data right there in front of your audience!
So if I have understood this correctly, LABpilot could replace my spreadsheets, my statistic- and my graphic programs. I can easily store numerical data, text and graphs in the same program and I can also use LABpilot for discussions and lectures because it is so fast and user friendly
About LABpilot
LABpilot is especially created for the experimental bio-sciences and uniquely suited for handling data collected over time. Enter, store, display, compare and interpret your data faster than with any other program.
Integrate a behavioral recording with microdialysis data, a single cell recording with a drug dose curve or physiological data with biochemical data. SEE your results as GRAPHS and use your experience and creativity to interpret your findings.
LABpilot is designed for working with graphs
With breath taking speed you can work yourself through a tremendous amount of data using graphs - not numbers. You can display, compare, manipulate, comment and interpret. In a few minutes you can do what will take hours in a conventional spreadsheet program. If your data are stored as Microsoft Excel files you can copy and paste data back and forth between LABpilot and Excel in order to make use of the instantaneous graphics.
LABpilot is designed for the biosciences
With a single mouse click you can transform data from real time to elapsed time, from absolute values to per cent values, look at you data as regression plots, display means, medians, SEM or SD and synchronize recordings from several subjects to the time point when e.g. a drug was administered.
LABpilot is designed for data mining and hypothesis testing
It is so fast that you can sit with your co-workers in front of a computer screen or video projector and plot and discuss your data in real time. You can try a new hypothesis and confirm or reject it in a matter of minutes. You can add events, change your graphs, store the results and comment your findings in writing.
LABpilot is designed for collaboration and communication
As soon as you want to share a graph with a co-worker you simply click "Mail this graph to…". After a few minutes it is displayed on his computer screen. You may even exchange graphs during a telephone conversation. If you want to find a reference you simply pull in the LABpilot webbrowser which takes you directly to Pub Med. If you want help or find out about interesting applications of LABpilot a single click takes you to the LABpilot Home Page on the web. And.... why not give your lectures using LABpilot and a video projector in order to show the dynamic interaction of your data "live".
