Article Synopsis
- The Internet has transformed communication among scientists, allowing for online interactions beyond traditional conferences, but knowledge sharing about new methods often remains limited to academic publications.
- Emerging fields like virology are facing challenges in disseminating new techniques, like metagenomics, which are critical for understanding viral communities but are typically confined to a few specialized labs.
- To address these issues, the platform protocols.io has been developed, featuring VERVENet, a virology community forum that enables researchers to share protocols, connect with peers, and access updated literature to foster collaboration and innovation.
The detailed know-how to implement research protocols frequently remains restricted to the research group that developed the method or technology. This knowledge often exists at a level that is too detailed for inclusion in the methods section of scientific articles. Consequently, methods are not easily reproduced, leading to a loss of time and effort by other researchers.
