Who it is for
PingPing is general life science. It is not tied to one discipline, so it is useful whether you are running gels, sequencing samples or managing a core facility.
Bench scientists
Graduate students, postdocs and technicians who want new methods, reagents and tools without wading through vendor catalogs.
Lab and core managers
People who choose instruments, services and suppliers and keep the work running on budget and on time.
Group leaders
Principal investigators and directors who want a quick read on what is new across the field and in the tools they rely on.
What an issue looks like
Short, skimmable modules. Anything paid for by a company or lab is marked Sponsored.
A quick win for your next experiment
One practical tip you can try at the bench this week, with a link to the full protocol.
Tool and service spotlight
A short module written by a member company or core facility: what it does, who it helps, and a link to learn more.

Grant calls, policy updates and conference dates, in a few lines each.
Three links from across the life sciences
Papers, preprints and stories our readers are talking about.
