AIMOS2023 conference will be in sunny Brisbane this year. Call for papers is now open & you can take a sneak peak at the program. Spoiler alert: Carl Bergstrom, Laure Wynants & Stuart Ritchie are all plenary speakers! bit.ly/aimos2023

Do you have thoughts about how open peer review (publishing content of peer reviews, and/or identifying reviewers) might affect trust or diversity in science/scholarship? We’d like to hear your thoughts! Google form: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAI… More info: trianglesci.org/2023/07/24/inv…

Wowee! Proud to FINALLY share our preprint from the ManyEcoEvo project. Read on to find out just how much variation there is when researchers analyse the same dataset to answer the same research question #metascience #ecology #evolution

How absolutely AMAZING is this news?

In incredible news, our preprint (ecoevorxiv.org/repository/vie…) has now been downloaded >7500 times from EcoEvoRXiv in the last week! We show that ecological results are very sensitive to who analyses the data and how they do it.

nature news just published a story about the implications our preprint showing how vulnerable results are to analytic choices. Check it out here! nature.com/articles/d4158…

Read this. There is a lot of fear of too much criticism in psychology, talk of protecting ECRs from this threat, etc. What about protecting ECRs from the damage of being silenced or worse when they raise legitimate criticism of famous people’s work? Excellent piece by Zoé Ziani, Ph.D.

We're SUPER excited to be collaborating with COS, evaluating the reliability of preprints in psych & adjacent disciplines. We're kicking off with a pilot workshop before AIMOS2023 in Brisbane. 🗓️ Mon, 20 Nov 💰 AU $150 🥯🍫🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ EOI: go.unimelb.edu.au/v29s

The AIMOS #MetaResearch and #OpenScience conference is on 21-23 November. As it's based in Brisbane, 🇦🇺, our 🇬🇧 audience may be most interested in the plenaries we list in the thread below (times in GMT). aimos.shinyapps.io/aimos2023/

Join @Tom_Hardwicke, Marcus Munafò, @cruwelli, Dorothy Bishop, and @EJWagenmakers on March 4–5 for a discussion on preregistration in scientific research at the The Royal Society in London! Register and learn more here: royalsociety.org/science-events…

The repliCATS team will run a hands-on PD session at #SPSP to develop formal training in peer review using our structured protocol, conducting reviews on psychology preprints! US$120 travel grants to support in-person attendance! Sign up via SPSP: spsp.wufoo.com/forms/spsp-202…

Really exciting new project. I think this is the kind of thing that the public assumes is really common in science - it’s not, yet, but I hope this helps us get there.

Submit until April 30th - it looks like it will be a fun meeting, with keynotes by Fiona Fidler and myself! …nference2024.meta-rep.uni-muenchen.de/program_prelim…

Hey everyone, we have 5 spots left for our in-person repliCATS workshop in Nairobi! Help us evaluate preprints, with US$250 travel grants for all participants. Express interest: forms.gle/j6ExqJo4MCAPec… Please RT/share #sips2024 #metascience

When your 2-year-old has very strong feelings about what repliCATS groups for SIPS2024 should be! Looking forward to running a @repliCATSproject workshop in Nairobi for #SIPS2024 #metascience

My first day City of Edmonton University of Alberta - here to create a Centre for Open Science & Synthesis in #Ecology & #Evolution. Looking for ~5 postdocs to join me in establishing the centre. Please apply - i-deel.org/opportunities.… Please RT

If you’re coming to SIPS in Nairobi in two weeks, consider signing up for repliCATS and get $250 to do some in-person peer reviews with other attendees for a few hours!
