LIMS for Research & Academic Labs

Reuben LIMS adapts to the way your research group works — flexible, configurable workflows that support reproducibility and collaboration.

Academic and research labs don’t fit one mould. Projects vary in length, complexity and funding requirements, and teams often change from year to year. Reuben LIMS is configured to match your processes, giving you a reliable platform for data integrity, collaboration and grant reporting without the burden of rigid, enterprise software.

Challenges we solve

Project diversity every grant or study has different requirements.

Documentation chaos experiments logged in spreadsheets, files or notebooks with no central record.

Reproducibility issues results can’t be validated or repeated across groups.

Changing teams turnover of students, postdocs and collaborators creates gaps in knowledge.

How it works

Project setup; create projects and define structures for samples, tests and data in line with your lab’s needs.
Sample tracking; register and barcode samples for traceability across multiple studies.
Configurable workflows; set up fields, templates and reporting to reflect the study or PI’s requirements.
Collaboration & permissions; assign access by group, role or project to keep data secure but shareable.
Reporting & export; generate reports for grants, publications or funders, or export datasets to repositories and BI tools.

Key capabilities for research & academic labs

Project-based workflows

Structure your LIMS around projects or grants, rather than fixed templates.

Flexible fields and templates

Capture the metadata your funders or PIs require, without overcomplicationC

Collaboration tools

Configure permissions for students, postdocs and visiting researchers to match real lab teams.

Data export options

Send datasets to repositories, BI dashboards or analysis tools with ease.

Integration with ELNs and BI

Connect with electronic lab notebooks or Power BI for richer insights.

Outcomes for your lab

Improved reproducibility

Standardised data capture ensures studies can be validated and repeated.

Simpler collaboration

Project teams can share data securely with role-based access.

Easier grant reporting

Generate outputs tailored for UKRI, Horizon Europe or other funders.

Reduced admin load

Eliminate spreadsheets and manual logs, freeing time for research.

Tailored to your project

Every implementation is configured around your lab’s specific processes, with the flexibility to adjust fields, templates and outputs as your research evolves.
