Welcome to ScienceWikis
Contribute your efforts, further our knowledge.

ScienceWikis is a catalog of biological knowledge wikis and wiki extensions, aiming to exploit the full potential of wiki technology to harness community intelligence in knowledge integration and curation.
Purpose & Aims
- Build professional academic wikis for biological knowledge integration and curation (such as, wiki-based gene annotation system).
- Measure users' contributions, give explicit authorship and provide a standard practice to reward community-curated efforts in bio-wikis.
- Provide a central archive of quantitative contributions and citations in different bio-wikis.
- Develop wiki extensions to facilitate biological content creation and editing, data visualization, exchange and sharing.
Biological Wikis
|
A wiki-based database for community curation of human long non-coding RNAs |
A community-curated knowledgebase for the rice research community |
A portal for a unified view of the human transcriptome |
A wiki-based English-to-Chinese Scientific Nomenclature Dictionary |
Wiki extensions
Wiki extensions to facilitate biological content creation and editing, data visualization, exchange and sharing through a variety of e-utility methods.
