#trusttruthpub

Overview: Truth can sometimes be taken for granted in academic research: the use of a scientific framework to test a concept, followed by publication of the results in a peer-reviewed article, mean the output is often assumed to be right without further verification. But when attempts are made to replicate a study, it can be difficult to attain the same results and, when stories of research being irreproducible reach the general public, confidence in scientific rigour can be undermined. So, what can be done to combat irreproducibility? This webinar will outline the challenges and look at what can be done to address them, including new ways to support transparent research and replication studies. This is the second in the series of the Trust, Truth and Scholarly Publishing webinars. Others in the series are Publishing without Perishing which ran on 26 April and is now available as a recording and Public engagement with scholarly research on 27 June.  Member discount available for booking all three!..."
