Here's the idea: DIYBiologists post about their experiments, and others can view the results and comment, critique, and give "kudos" that help the scientist's reputation on the site.
We think there's a huge benefit to bringing DIYBio projects under one umbrella, rather than sharing only on community lab wikis or personal blogs. We hope Nucleus can be that umbrella, allowing for a network effect that will bring citizen science projects greater discoverability along with greater reputation and collaboration opportunities to the scientist.
The team is just myself and two others. Nucleus has no affiliations with any larger institutions. We're building it because we really believe in citizen science and its potential to change science at large. We're hoping Nucleus can help all of you work together more easily. We'd love for people to check it out, and please feel free to reach out with your thoughts at david -at- wearenucleus -dot- com. Thanks!

Can we get some sort of standard way to report the findings in the
DIYbio community? By standard, I mean, a specific file format (txt,
pdf, etc) with a specific template. The template should make it easy
to list materials, methods, results, conclusion, references. It should
be like a regular journal article except easily read by anyone and
easy to create [the report] by anyone.
And a place that accepts them as a repository would be nice, to keep
track of all the findings by people all over the world. Something like
github but I'm not sure what the general sentiment on github is. I
know Cathal uses it for his protocols.
