Electronic Lab Notebooks, or ELNs, are being used more frequently by universities and in industry. An ELN can help you organize and share your data, and make preserving it easier.
Most ELNs now have date/time stamps which allow researcher compliance with US FDA 21 CFR Part 11. If your research might be patentable, your PI should discuss the use of ELNs with your institution's general counsel or research offices.
