| Abstract: | The iterative bleaching extends multiplexity (IBEX) Knowledge- Base is a central portal for researchers adopting IBEX and related 2D and 3D immunofluorescence imaging methods. The design of the Knowledge- Base is modeled after efforts in the open- source software community and includes three facets: a development platform (GitHub), static website, and service for data archiving. The Knowledge- Base facilitates the practice of open science throughout the research life cycle by providing validation data for recommended and non- recommended reagents, such as primary and secondary antibodies. In addition to reporting negative data, the Knowledge- Base empowers method adoption and evolution by providing a venue for sharing protocols, videos, datasets, software, and publications. A dedicated discussion forum fosters a sense of community among researchers while addressing questions not covered in published manuscripts. Together, scientists from around the world are advancing scientific discovery at a faster pace, reducing wasted time and effort, and instilling greater confidence in the resulting data. |
