New York User Group

Welcome to the New York User Group!

Hi everyone! 👋My name is Ada, and I am a downstream scientist at Apertura Gene Therapy. Our company combines machine learning and receptor mechanism understanding to engineer next-generation AAV therapies. In my role, I split my time and my brain between wet lab operations and data management.I'm quite passionate about data management as an extension of good science, so I'm super excited to help kick off a Benchling User Group in the NYC area. I'm looking forward to meeting everyone and sharing ideas/best practices/learnings/woes.Please stay tuned for more information on our first meet up. Ideally we could find a place central enough so that we can bring some folks in from Manhattan-adjacent locations as well (e.g. NJ, Westchester, CT), so if anybody has any suggestions, please let me know 😊In the meantime, please reply below to introduce yourselves!

MADBUG, Fall Meeting

Greetings to our MADBUG members! I hope this message finds you well. It has been a while since we began our Madison Area Benchling Users' Group, and I wanted to express my gratitude to everyone who participated in the inaugural event. I think it's time for us to reconvene and discuss new Benchling-related topics that will impact our daily work. For this reason, I am requesting your input on suitable dates and locations for us to meet in September. If you could respond with your preferred date and time, as well as your preferred meeting location, that would be fantastic. It would be even better if you can host the meeting! If not, I will follow up with URP to inquire about hosting at Element One. For topics, we were considering a round-robin discussion approach to share generalized issues encountered in our Benchling deployments, seeking constructive feedback from other teams. I believe this will promote collaboration. Additionally, we welcome other topic ideas and your feedback on whet

Moving projects

Dear all This is Negin from Biomedical Center in Munich : )We are a big group with a lot of project folders, the idea would be to clean-up the project list and to move the project that are finished to 1 project folder. I tried drag and drop which did not work, the error was “Moving project is not currently permitted”.That would be great if someone could tell me how to do this P.S. I am one of the admins. Thank you
