What is currentprotocols.com?
Currentprotocols.com is the new interactive community site for methods content. The interdisciplinarity of our extensive protocol collection is highlighted by category listings of content, and users can browse or search to find the protocol they need. Abstracts, materials lists, figures, and references are some of the featured offerings for each article, with links to the full content on Wiley Online Library. The site also includes user and supplier submitted protocols, tools and calculators, discussion forums and blogs, video demonstration of techniques, and other community features.
How are Current Protocols methods developed?
Leading scientists contribute methods in new and cutting-edge areas of research identified by our distinguished editorial board members. The board members—along with our full-time, in-house editorial staff of M.S. and Ph.D. scientists—then review, fine-tune, and edit the content for clarity, consistency of style, and presentation. Already-published procedures are reviewed periodically and revised "as needed" to keep all the protocols up-to-date.
How often are Current Protocols titles updated?
Most titles are updated quarterly—both in print and online. Current Protocols in Stem Cell Biology is updated monthly.
