LAP Repository

LAP repository (https://www.laprepo.cbgp.upm.es/) is a repository dedicated to protocols meant to automate experimental workflows. Its entries have a structured format designed to expedite the creation of new protocols. It serves as a valuable resource for researchers and scientists aiming to enhance efficiency and reproducibility in their laboratory experiments.

In addition, the LAP repository also contains scripts meant to help in the processing and analysis of the data created by the high-throughput experiments. These scripts are under the section LAPu and can be found on the same page.

All LAP and LAPu entries have instructions and example variable files attached to allow users to use them directly in their experiments.
