Nature Protocols

Setting the Benchmark: a comprehensive database of peer-reviewed, step-by-step protocols from leading laboratories

Nature Protocols is an online journal of laboratory protocols for bench researchers. Protocols are presented in a ‘recipe’ style providing step-by-step descriptions of procedures, which users can take to the lab and immediately apply in their own research.

Nature Protocols appeals to a broad audience from researchers and technical staff to postdoctoral fellows and faculty interested in biomedicine, biological sciences and chemistry at academic, commercial and governmental organizations and research institutions.

Nature Protocols is associated with the Protocol Exchange which is an open repository through which researchers can share and discuss their protocols.
