'''Laboratory informatics''' is the specialized application of information technology aimed at optimizing and extending laboratory operations.<ref>Perry, Douglas. Laboratory Informatics: Origin, Scope, and its Place in Higher Education: Journal of Laboratory Information, December '''2004''', ''9(6)'', 421-428</ref> It encompasses [[data acquisition]] (e.g. through text, image or voice<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.the-scientist.com/the-marketplace/labtwins-ai-powered-digital-assistant-now-talks-back-and-connects-data-sources-in-the-lab-with-new-open-api-66040|title=LabTwin's AI-powered Digital Assistant Now Talks Back and Connects Data Sources in the Lab with New Open API|website=The Scientist Magazine®|language=en|access-date=2020-02-26}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.labtwin.com/blog/why-we-use-voice-technology|title=Why We Use Voice Technology|last=Singh|first=Guru|website=www.labtwin.com|language=en|access-date=2020-02-26}}</ref>), instrument interfacing, laboratory networking, [[data processing]], specialized data management systems (such as a [[chromatography data system]]), a [[laboratory information management system]], scientific data management (including [[data mining]] and [[data warehousing]]), and knowledge management (including the use of an [[electronic lab notebook]]). It has become more prevalent with the rise of other "[[informatics]]" disciplines such as [[bioinformatics]], [[cheminformatics]] and [[health informatics]]. Several graduate programs are focused on some form of laboratory informatics, often with a clinical emphasis.<ref>http://www.unmc.edu/pathology/clinical/clinical-programs/lab-informatics.html.
