The Journal of Visualized Experiments (JoVE), launched in October of 2006, is a web-based, open access, peer-reviewed journal that publishes scientific protocols in video format. JoVE coordinates camera crews from around the world to visit research labs and film scientists performing procedures[1] ranging from the basic DNA isolations to multi-step animal surgeries. The journal publishes monthly and each issue features 15 videos.[2]

[edit] JoVE goals
JoVE aims to increase the reproducibility and transparency of scientific experiments. Video procedures show experiments in real time, complete with narration from the demonstrator pointing out potential pit falls and complications that would be difficult to discover when working off a printed protocol.[3] Videos make science more accessible not only to scientists, but the general public. Video articles submitted to JoVE go through a peer review process, which ensures the quality and scientific integrity of each published video[4].
