In addition to the PubMed-listed scientific protocols we will start to experiment with a broader scientific content at JoVE.
On the teaching front, one project is to record students' experiments in our regular undergraduate courses here at our university. The idea is to generate a repository for tried and tested experimental protocols which will be much easier to incorporate into new courses than from old notebooks or papers. We hope that other universities around the world will follow our lead, so that every new or revised course will have plenty of useful experiments to chose from in order to create the best learning experience for the students.
At this stage this is all very much an experiment and we are trying to think in all possible directions. Maybe we could offer video streams which deal with individual universities or labs. Scientific content, interviews or short data presentations grouped by locality to give an impression of what this particular university is doing. Or maybe a "Science 2.0" discussion channel where people can voice their opinion on open access, open science, post-publication review or any other aspect of open science and publishing reform. The important aspect of this topic should be that we want to try to find working solutions as we have heard all the arguments over and over again -  it is time to reach across the aisle and we feel that JoVE would be a rather unbiased forum.
What else could this feature be used for? What would scientists want to watch at JoVE besides video protocols? What do you think of undergrad teaching protocols or of Science 2.0 discussions? Help us brainstorm and leave your ideas in the comments section.
