Version protocols like software

Controlled protocol documents, change logs, and effective-date discipline for reproducibility and audits.

foundation~25 minBioinformaticiansLab ScientistsRegulatory Affairs

Steps

  1. 1Store protocols in controlled repo with semver-style versions
  2. 2Change log entry per revision: what changed, why, approved by
  3. 3Effective dates govern which version applies to which experiment dates
  4. 4Link executed runs to exact protocol version used
  5. 5Retire superseded versions visibly, never silently edit history
  6. 6Review critical protocols annually or upon equipment change

Common Pitfalls

  • ▲Protocol PDFs floating in email attachments
  • ▲Edits without version bumps breaking audit trails
