Biomedical Sciences: Protocols & Methods

Bio-101 is an online database of life science protocols. Its mission is to make life science research more efficient and reproducible by curating and hosting high-quality, experimentally validated, freely accessible protocols.

Bio-protocol is an online peer-reviewed protocol journal. Its mission is to make life science research more efficient and reproducible by curating and hosting high quality, free access protocols.

Cold Spring Harbor Protocols is an interdisciplinary journal providing a definitive source of research methods in cell, developmental and molecular biology, genetics, bioinformatics, protein science, computational biology, immunology, neuroscience and imaging. Each monthly issue details multiple essential methods—a mix of cutting-edge and well-established techniques. All protocols are up-to-date and presented in a consistent, easy-to-follow format.

Current Protocols in Immunology is a "best-practices" collection that provides comprehensive coverage of immunological methods from classic to the most cutting-edge, sophisticated protocols in immunology today. As with all of the Current Protocols titles, experts from around the globe, many of whom have invented the methods described, are invited by our editorial board members to contribute their step-by-step protocols and expert advice to ensure that even novice biologists can confidently apply these methods to their own research.

Nature Protocols is an online journal of high-quality peer-reviewed protocols for researchers. They are presented in a 'recipe' style, providing step-by-step descriptions of procedures that users can take to the lab and immediately apply in their own research.

Open repository for the deposition and sharing of protocols, from the Nature Publishing Group. Protocols are posted directly by their authors, and are not peer-reviewed or edited. Protocols are free for use and comment.

Specifically designed for laboratory procedures, Experiments enables you to find and evaluate relevant protocols and methods from the largest available resource for the life sciences, with articles from Nature Protocols, Nature Methods, Protocol Exchange and SpringerProtocols.

Springer Protocols Handbooks collects a diverse range of step-by-step laboratory methods and protocols from across the life and biomedical sciences.

Bioscience Methods (ISSN 1925-1920) is an open access, peer reviewed journal published online by BioPublisher. The journal publishes all the latest and outstanding research articles, letters and reviews in all areas of bioscience, the range of topics including (but are not limited to) technology review, technique know-how, lab tool, statistical software and known technology modification. Case studies on technologies for gene discovery and function validation as well as genetic transformation.

Methods focuses on rapidly developing techniques in the experimental biological and medical sciences.

For almost 30 years, biological scientists have come to rely on the research protocols and methodologies in the critically acclaimed Methods in Molecular Biology series. The series was the first to introduce the step-by-step protocols approach that has become the standard in all biomedical protocol publishing. Each protocol is provided in readily-reproducible step-by-step fashion, opening with an introductory overview, a list of the materials and reagents needed to complete the experiment, and followed by a detailed procedure that is supported with a helpful notes section offering tips and tricks of the trade as well as troubleshooting advice. These hallmark features were introduced by series editor Dr. John Walker and constitute the key ingredient in each and every volume of the Methods in Molecular Biology series. Tested and trusted, all protocols from the series are indexed in Pub Med, comprehensive and reliable.

Methods of Pharmacology and Toxicology publishes cutting-edge methods and protocols in all areas of pharmacological and toxicological research.

Nature Methods is a monthly journal publishing novel methods and significant improvements to basic life sciences research techniques. All editorial decisions are made by a team of full-time professional editors.

Neuromethods publishes cutting-edge methods and protocols in all areas of neuroscience and neurological research. Each book in the series offers tested laboratory protocols and step by step methods for reproducible lab experiments to aid neuroscientists and neurobiologists in laboratory testing and experimentation. With an emphasis on the molecular biology and animal models of neurodegenerative diseases, Neuromethods focuses on topics with wide ranging implications to the central nervous system and brain function, such as electrophysiology, neuroimaging, neurodegenerative diseases such as autism and epilepsy, apoptosis, and patch clamp analysis, to provide investigators with highly useful compendiums of key strategies and approaches to successful research in brain function, degeneration, and development.
