Research Methods & Protocols

ASMScience Laboratory protocols (American Society for Microbiology)
Bio-protocol Collection of peer-reviewed, life science protocols organized by 11 different fields of study and 10 different organisms. Protocols are organized chronologically with a detailed guide on how to reproduce a given experiment. Each protocol also contains an interactive and moderated Q & A section to facilitate open communication between protocol authors and the research community.
JoVE Science Education : Basic Methods in Cellular and Molecular Biology JoVE Science Education is a video library dedicated to teaching scientific fundamentals through simple easy-to-understand video demonstrations. UNL subscribes to Basic Methods in Cellular and Molecular Biology module.
JoVE Video Journal (Journal of Visualized Experiments)
Nature Protocols Nature Protocols is an interactive online resource for experimental and laboratory protocols for bench researchers primarily in biology and chemistry. Protocols are presented in a 'recipe' style providing step-by-step descriptions of procedures that users can take to the lab bench and immediately apply in their own research.
