C4G BLIS is a free open-source laboratory information system (LIS) designed to "track patient specimens and laboratory results"[1] and is primarily utilized in Africa.
Product history
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) initiated a collaboration with the Computing For Good (C4G) group at the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) in the summer of 2009, with the goal of creating a LIS designed specifically for service-delivery level laboratories with limited resources.[2][3][4] The software — dubbed Basic Laboratory Information System or BLIS — was developed primarily by students at Georgia Tech with the feedback of the CDC and laboratory personnel in various parts of Africa[2], culminating in the first implementation of the software at Cameroon's Buea Regional Hospital laboratory in April 2010.[3][5]
