How PubCompare improves research workflows ?

In my teaching role I provide projects for MRes, MSc and BSc students and it is really helpful to have an accessible, smart database of protocols that I can use to find the methodology that is best suited to their projects.

A repository platform for experimental protocols is vital for researchers because it facilitates reproducibility and transparency in scientific research. By sharing their protocols, researchers can collaborate more effectively, accelerate scientific progress, and avoid duplication of effort. Furthermore, open access to protocols fosters confidence in the results and allows for more rigorous evaluation of research quality. This transparency promotes a strong scientific culture and helps avoid bias and errors. In short, such a platform improves the efficiency and integrity of my research.

Professor and researcher @ Universidad de Valladolid

PubCompare is the first search engine devoted to real experimental protocols. Up to now, I searched for protocols in PubMed, and that was not at all convenient, nor efficient. I have used PubCompare only a few times, but each time I did find the protocol I was looking for.

Dr. Germain Rousselet

Research Director @ CEA

Registration of a study and publication of a protocol has now become expected in health sciences, both at primary and meta-research levels. Robust, trustworthy, available, and searchable protocols are key ways to improve transparency and minimize research waste. PubCompare fills this gap in protocol processing.

Dr. Maciej PĹ‚aszewski

Professor @ University of Physical Education

PubCompare is easy to use, exceptionally scientists friendly. Results of the search e.g. papers applying searched protocol provide detailed list of publications and all of them fall within the scope of the search. The search is precise and there are no misleading papers that do not provide method of the interest listed. The platform allows one to use already suggested keywords to narrow the search and find the protocols used for specific experimental model, matter to be studied or study design.

There is continuous development of methodologies, so researchers are typically interested in having the best protocol for new experiments, i.e. a community protocol. Having historical protocols of course have a value in looking at the past experiments, especially in addressing the inconsistencies among experiments.

Dr. Stavros Chatzifotis

Research Director @ Hellenic Centre for Marine Research

This platform is very helpful in fast tracking of research protocols (and you a get large number of similar protocols and findings) concerning the factors and variables an individual researcher is looking for, and at once you are linked to the published study and can get acquainted with the whole text. This reduces the time for literature review and ties the researcher exactly with the things that he needs to gain some background knowledge about the research they are going to undertake.

Prof. Michal Bronikowski

Head of Department of Physical Activity @ Poznan University of Physical Education

I work with a team in experimental fields, and we have often found out that performing experiments according to the protocols included in the manuscripts is not easy. We often waste time and money on expensive reagents and the results are poor. Therefore, access to a database of proven protocols would be very desirable and useful for the entire scientific community.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
