Build the encyclopedia with us
Contribute at the level that fits you
Flag one error, suggest one source, annotate a study, review a section, or help author a new evidence summary. There is no minimum time commitment and no obligation to continue.
Ways to participate
A useful contribution can be small or substantial
Correction
Flag one problem
Point to an unclear sentence, missing limitation, broken source trail, or factual error.
Source
Add relevant evidence
Suggest a PMID, DOI, trial record, guidance document, or precise source locator.
Review
Review within your field
Qualified contributors can review a defined page or section with the scope and outcome recorded.
Authorship
Develop a new summary
Contributors can propose or draft source-linked evidence summaries under the same independent-review rules.
Five ways to start
Choose one small, defined assignment
Each task is designed to take 15 to 45 minutes. Complete one and stop, or continue only if it is useful to you. You may also propose a different task within your field.
MC-001 · 20 to 30 minutes
Check the CBN and sleep conclusion
Review one conclusion or limitation and identify wording that is accurate, unclear, overstated, or missing an important qualification.
Good fit: Sleep or cannabinoid researcher, clinician, or graduate researcher
MC-002 · 30 to 45 minutes
Check the sleep outcome measures
Check one distinction among sleep onset, maintenance, total sleep time, next-day effects, subjective reports, and objective measures.
Good fit: Sleep scientist, epidemiologist, trial methodologist, or biostatistician
MC-003 · 20 to 30 minutes
Check one COA term
Check one explanation involving sample identity, units, detection and quantitation limits, method scope, or pass and fail language.
Good fit: Analytical chemist, laboratory scientist, quality professional, or method specialist
MC-004 · 30 to 45 minutes
Check one medication-interaction boundary
Check whether one paragraph keeps laboratory enzyme findings, pharmacokinetic changes, and demonstrated clinical outcomes separate.
Good fit: Pharmacist, clinical pharmacologist, prescribing clinician, or interaction researcher
MC-005 · 15 to 20 minutes
Test one source trail
Follow one important statement to its source and report exactly what was clear, broken, ambiguous, or missing.
Good fit: Librarian, information specialist, educator, researcher, graduate student, or careful reader
For a scientific finding, send the page section, your finding, proposed wording if needed, and a PMID, DOI, trial record, or precise source locator. A usability note can simply identify the page, statement, destination link, and obstacle.
Start a conversation
Send five details in one email
- 1
Name the assignment ID, page, and exact section.
- 2
State your finding or proposed change in your own words.
- 3
Include the source link and precise supporting passage or locator for any research claim.
- 4
Share a credential source only if you want attributed expert status, and disclose any relevant relationship or conflict.
- 5
Choose public-profile credit, page-only credit, private thanks, or no public credit.
What happens next
Credit is transparent; publication remains controlled
Verify identity and scope
Public names, credentials, expertise, affiliations, and conflicts are checked and displayed only with consent.
Review the evidence
Every research claim needs a source and precise support. Contributors do not approve their own scientific work.
Credit the contribution
Accepted work can link to a public profile showing the contribution type, review scope, date, and disclosures.
Editorial standard
No source, no research claim
We welcome disagreement, correction, and new ideas. Strong opinions alone are not enough to change a research page; scientific changes must remain traceable to evidence and pass an independent human review.
A contributor invitation does not imply employment, payment, partnership, institutional endorsement, or a publication promise.
