Protocol.io logo
Last month, we highlighted Protocols.io as a new resource available at @bodleian.ox.ac.uk. Next week, as part OxFOS, you can sign up and join the Springer Nature team for a training session introducing the platform to researchers either in person here at the RSL or online

Started this project years ago, but now everything is deposited on @addgene.bsky.social and a short @protocolsio.bsky.social is online. Try it out to make your own (cheap) homemade nuclease/Benzonase!

Thank you @jcoker10.bsky.social and Michael Lim!
We've updated our protocols.io page to highlight a couple of the protocols published by Crick authors recently.
If you're at the Crick, don't forget you can get your flat pdfs converted to the protocols.io format at no cost! 😀

Promotional graphic for Springer Nature and protocols.io featuring an event announcement. The left side has a light blue background with the Springer Nature logo at the top and text reading: “Join experts for interactive sessions. Jan 21: protocols.io Hackathon. Jan 22: Methods Mythbusting Panel.” A dark blue button below says “Register today.” The right side shows the protocols.io logo and a large text design that says “I ♥ Methods” with a red heart symbol, followed by “Love Methods Week” and the hashtag #LoveMethods26.
💡 Did you know? Methods are among the most cited research outputs.
For #LoveMethods26, join experts for interactive sessions:
👉 Jan 21: @protocolsio.bsky.social Hackathon
👉 Jan 22: Methods Mythbusting Panel

Happy International Love Methods week!
The Crick partners with @protocolsio.bsky.social to share open methods, and if you happen to be a Crick researcher, you can use their protocol writing up service for free (while codes last!)

🎉 We are thrilled to announce that our protocol “Library construction for ONT long read cDNA”, developed at our GenomiqueENS core facility, is available on protocol.io. dx.doi.org/10.17504/protocols.io.4r3l21oepg1y/v1
🧬Searching for a Nanopore RNA-seq protocol that generates longer reads than the manufacturer’s protocol, and applicable for low-input material ? 🤔
Really liking the idea and output of GAQETv2 - such a cool tool for structural genome annotation QC!!

#Research 🧪
Latin American Hub for Bioimaging Through Open Hardware (LIBRE Hub librehub.github.io) is an amazing initiative from @makertobey.bsky.social and colleagues!
We have done our first @protocolsio.bsky.social. Are you interested about #genome_annotation quality evaluation? We have developed a tool called #GAQET2 (github.com/victorgcb198...) which runs several tools like #AGAT, #BUSCO, and many other tools. You can find it at www.protocols.io/view/structu...
It was great to hear from @lteytelman.bsky.social about Protocols.io today for our LIBRE hub channel on open science! We already have a tutorial in Spanish: youtu.be/RuBKWouEyL8?...
With the full CRISPR 7-11 protocol here :)
Graphic with a dark teal background featuring three illustrated circular icons representing different research teams. On the left, Team Kordower icon shows colorful antibody shapes labeled “Neuro-Immune Interactions.” In the center, Team Liddle icon depicts a stylized brain with interconnected circuitry labeled “Circuitry and Brain-Body Interactions.” On the right, Team Rio icon shows a human head outline with a DNA strand inside, labeled “PD Functional Genomics.” A thin gradient line runs along the bottom, shifting from purple to blue to green, with the ASAP logo in the lower right corner.
👏 This month’s Network Spotlight goes to Teams Kordower, Liddle, & Rio!
Their open-access protocols ranked among the top 100 most viewed on @protocolsio.bsky.social in August 🎉
➡️ Mouse Perfusions (bit.ly/4qH6rIY)
➡️ Y-Maze (bit.ly/47aITTC)
➡️ Culture/transfection of HEK293T cells (bit.ly/4o4ytfR)
Our new preprint covering the improvements we made to our respiratory metagenomic assay is out now:

✅ Now implemented in 6 NHS hospitals
✅ Increased sensitivity
✅ Increased pathogen genome coverage

Here’s a write-up that includes my lightning talk and reflections on why technicians must be recognised in the REF:

Hope to work with others to get methods formally recognised as reportable research outputs in a category of their own.
