The Research shelf deals with compounds that are mostly studied in cells, animals or early trials, and with the methods researchers use. Many of these peptides are popular online long before any controlled human study exists. The guides set out which experiments were done, in which species and at what stage, so that claims can be weighed against the record.

Two method guides help with everything else here: how labs build a peptide step by step, and how to read a peptide study in ten minutes. Compound guides such as MOTS-c and 5-Amino-1MQ show the same approach applied to a single molecule.
