After researching this field (biomedical R&D) a bit, I found that the mindset and workflow is mostly pre-computers. The relevant decision makers in the labs usually don't see a need to change something because "it works" and "it's done always this way".

"its always done this way" is the ultimate motivation of any startup. We wouldn't have any competing startups if everyone just accepted that, probably, not have any entrepreneurs or have a better world for that matter. The fitness function of the world will flatline.
