How SciXchange Works

A transparent, researcher-first platform for sharing scientific materials.

The Cycle

From Bench to Network

A seamless cycle that turns idle materials into active collaborations.

1
List

Share What You Have

Post your materials — plasmids, antibodies, cell lines, reagents — with rich metadata. One listing, infinite possibilities.

2
Discovery

Be Found, Discover Others

Researchers can search, filter, and discover your materials. The prototype is designed to connect supply with demand as the network grows.

3
Request

Request With One Click

Send structured, professional requests. Track status transparently. No more informal emails lost in inboxes.

4
Great Science

Accelerate Discovery

Receive materials, get credited as a contributor, build your academic reputation. Every exchange fuels the next breakthrough.

An illustrative flow
Day 1

A lab lists a CRISPR plasmid with metadata in 90 seconds.

Day 3

A postdoc in another lab searching for the same construct sends a request.

Day 7

Material ships overnight. The receiving lab fast-tracks its work.

Day 90

The receiving lab publishes the paper, the providing PI is credited as a contributor, and the public benefits from accelerated science.
