protocols.io is a platform for recording, organizing, and sharing detailed up-to-date research methods and protocols. The tool allows researchers to easily create, edit, share, and get credit for their protocols, and provides an open access hub for scientists to communicate improvements and corrections to scientific methods. The platform is useful for researchers in any disciplines that use step-by-step methodologies, such as biology, chemistry, neuroscience, engineering, data science, and other computational or life science fields.
