I wrote a guide to using WordPress to run an academic labbook [1]. It's basically just a case of installing some free plugins, and you've turned it into a collaborative platform. I've thought about combining the plugin code together into a single one for ease of setup, so if anyone finds that interesting then I can look into it properly.

This avoids proprietary solutions like the one here and allows self hosting.

Awesome stuff! You should make it and see what happens. Many researchers/students struggle with the discovery of research groups, collaboration etc. The more people/companies try to tackle these issues the merrier.
