SwAPP Cast – Making Laboratory Workflows more Efficient – Online
Description
We are pleased to announce the first SwAPP Cast session on October 28th, 2026 from 11:00 to 12:00, entitled “Working Smarter with Empower™ CDS: Practical tips for a more efficient laboratory workflow”.
Empower™ CDS is a powerful system, but experienced users often develop their own routines and ways of working over time. Are there still opportunities to make everyday workflows simpler and more efficient?
In this session, we’ll look at practical ways to work smarter with Empower — from data acquisition and processing to reporting and review. We’ll explore common sources of unnecessary manual work and opportunities for automation and standardisation.
The focus is not on learning Empower functionalities, but on rethinking familiar workflows and discovering practical ways to save time, reduce repetitive tasks, and work more efficiently.
