Scientific discovery depends on having valid results. Without these valid results it becomes difficult to make any real conclusions or progress. One way that variability can arise between teams is through measurements, especially measurements that involve complicated machines and procedures. The InterLab study is a way to test how different measurements can be between teams while preforming the same experiment. This year the InterLab study is looking at variability in fluorescence, by having teams across the world measure the same glowing protein. More specifically, each team will look at the same six promoters and look at their affect on green fluorescent protein (GFP).
