Moving forward: Transparency, Openness, and Reproducibility in Our Lab - Handout for Workshop Activity

Abstract

Handout/Assignment developed as part of Workshop on Open Science, organized for lab retreat of Roshan Cools' lab (July 2016).<br><br>The activity started with a presentation on outlining the problems of a lack of transparency, openness, and reproducibility in science and what various stakeholders are doing to address this (available here: <br><div><a href="https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.4877480.v1">https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.4877480.v1</a>). <br></div><div><br></div><div>The presentation was followed by a breakout session centered on the question: what can we, as a team, do to become<br>more transparent, open, and reproducible? In small teams, participants discussed the opportunities, challenges, and feasibility of six open science practices:<br></div><div>1. pre-registration, <br></div><div>2. stopping questionable research practices, <br></div><div>3. data sharing, <br></div><div>4. code review</div><div>5. version control</div><div>6. replication projects<br></div><div><br></div><div>The final part of the workshop was a central discussion, in which teams motivated their choices and explored how the lab could benefit from open science practices.<br></div
