The biorails.org site is the technical knowledge base and project management site for BioRails. This provides a transparent view of the project and is where ideas are discussed, refined and validated. The BioRails.com site concentrates on BioRails as a supported commercial product with support services, addressing and discussing market needs and trends. We encourage community members to submit articles for publication and to peer review our work. Whilst the wiki is a collaborative document, you will need to register to contribute.

The first milestone release BioRails 1.0 supported simple study organization and execution of experiments with a web based task sheet for data entry.

The second milestone release BioRails 2.0 supports request and task tracking, together with content management for capturing observations, discussions and preparation of study reports.
