About

Sharing protocols, notebooks, and workflows provides opportunities to document and share research processes

Protocols / Experiements

JoVE
The Journal of Visual Experiments produces and publishes videos of scientific experiments from laboratories around the world, allowing for reproducibility.
PROSPERO
PROSPERO is designed for researchers to register their systematic review protocols.
Protocolexchange (Nature)
An open repository (preprint server) of community-contributed protocols sponsored by Nature Portfolio. We welcome protocols from all areas of the natural sciences.
Protocols.io
Protocols.io is an open access platform for the creation and sharing of detailed methods and protocols. UC researchers currently have free access to Premium accounts during the pilot period (May 31, 2024). Premium features include private collaboration around method development and use in classrooms. In the long term, this initiative should also increase the reproducibility and rigor of the research published by UC academics. Use your UCI email when logging in to access these features.
