The Bio-protocol Advisory Board includes editors from some of our partner journals, as well as Bio-protocol reviewers and authors. Their mission is to guide Bio-protocol to best serve the life science research community and its mission of openly sharing experimentally validated and reproducible protocols. Bio-protocol staff meets with the Advisory Board once or twice per year to discuss new projects, the progress of existing initiatives, challenges faced by the journal, and the Bio-protocol business model. We also welcome feedback and suggestions from our advisors throughout the year.
