Lots of laughter, old friends, new faces: our annual symposium brought about 90 people from different career stages, disciplines and roles in the #academic system together. We discussed the differences between #quality assurance and policing #research practices, learned about galaxy and #nanopublications, and caught up with #reproducibility related projects.

To everyone who participated, contributed and joined us: Thank you for making this a lively and energetic event!

🎧 New #OpenScience Bites #podcast episode on #reproducibility!

Felipe Romero, #philosopher of #science at @facultyofphilosophygroningen, shares why he thinks reproducibility is undervalued, how reproducibility has advanced in recent years, and what needs to change for reproducibility to become part of everyday #scientific practice.

@ACM transitions to 100% #OpenAccess

Effective 1 January 2026, the #AssociationForComputingMachinery has made all its publications openly available.

In this interview, #ACM President and OpenAIRE founding member Yannis Ioannidis discusses the motivations, implementation challenges, and expected impact of this decision on research accessibility, sustainability, & #reproducibility.

In two weeks, we'll kick off this new year with a cool workshop where we combine #Reproducibility and #OpenScience with #BehaviorChange 🤩

Come join us in Leiden!

Workshop Announcement: Acyclic Diagrams and #Reproducibility?
In this workshop, @matherion will introduce some behavior change theory that can help you design interventions and understand how behavior change happens. #CultureChange is behavior change - let's find out how this change works and what we can learn from health care #research.

Has "open science" even been attempted yet? About 10% of articles share code, and of those, maybe 10% share code and data in a way that actually runs. Virtually none are single-button reproducible. We have a long way to go.

As part of our efforts to make science more reproducible, we integrate Bio-protocol in our methods sections so you can easily view or request detailed protocols directly from any eLife article. #Reproducibility #OpenScience

Reading a paper this morning https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/pds.4295 that follows Nosek & Errington (2017) https://elifesciences.org/articles/23383.pdf in muddling the distinction between #replicability as a broader scientific aim vs #reproducibility as captured in the narrow (purely 'computational') idea of #reproducibleresearch discussed e.g. in a #Guix context here https://guix.gnu.org/cookbook/en/html_node/Reproducible-Research.html.

This mistake is not uncommon, and leads (in this present paper, at least) to insufficient stress on computational reproducibility as a sine qua non of any higher-order quality attribute.

Implementing #reproducibility into daily #research practices hinges on pilots, projects, experiments and #collaborative efforts.
Do you have an idea on how to foster more #reproducibleResearch? Or are you already implementing a tool, exercise, standard procedure at your workplace?

You are invited to present your projects (or project ideas) during our poster and/or pitch session:
