• protocols.io has an entry service to import protocols for customers via a submission system, this requires oversight, interaction with the authors to address any revisions requested and transferring protocol ownership.
• Engage in developing a successful pipeline to post and format protocols on protocols.io, oversee QA including engaging with the protocol authors. The process is part automated but will require a careful QA for all protocols.
• Assess newly submitted protocols, accounts, and workspaces and moderate them
• To provide process related updates to team and create and maintain reference documents.
