“And I’m like, what do you mean, you ‘do your own research’? You running a double-blind study in your living room, dawg?” - A guy walking ahead of me with his friends on a NYC sidewalk in 2021, also my favorite overheard dialogue of the entire pandemic

Research data management in lungfish 😆

Useful read to check in if I am /you are humble enough to promote #OpenScience: ““Nothing is as visionary or as blinding as moral indignation”. That always poses a threat to being aware when you’re in the wrong.” From @hildabast.bsky.social in absolutelymaybe.plos.org/2021/10/31/t...

How to make reproducible research and open science training the norm in Universities? The article elifesciences.org/articles/89736 offers actionable steps. At LMU Munich, we have already started to implement each of these 11 strategies. A thread🧵:

Applications for MEME are open! It's a research- and mobility-oriented Evolutionary Biology Master's Programme, where students have the opportunity to visit 4(+2) different universities in two years. Please spread the word! www.evobio.eu #EvoBio

Starnberg 8:00 19.12.2024 when waiting for the next sbahn because the ersatz bus was too full and late to make the first sbahn and that the train in between was too full to take any passagers … public transport around Munich is the worst it’s been - but what a place to be waiting !

As we @lmu-osc.bsky.social build a train-the-trainer programme for open science with @forrt.bsky.social, I’m wondering about this… should we try to change LMU Munich‘s culture in depth by engaging many locals or make material usable for educators around the world to seed changes? Can we do both?

In 2020, we showed that studies published in ecological journals WITH a code-sharing policy showed a 21% reproducibility potential at max (Culina et al 2020, @plosbiology.bsky.social) We've now investigated journals WITHOUT a code-sharing policy. The results are worrying. 📰 doi.org/10.32942/X21...

This is so spot on. As a climate scientist and public intellectual, I see or experience these often

Hi all, the 1st starting pack METARESEARCH AND OPEN SCIENCE is full. Here is a second one that is being populated. ✋ if you want to be in it, but please double check that you are not in the first one before. Else it will be difficult to manage. go.bsky.app/DWo6RbA

It is good to see the move on Bluesky because, X was starting to be boring. Nice to e-meet so many new followers here. Here is a 🧶 that is introduces most of my research interests. It is about #metaresearch #openscience and #medicine.

A first starting pack for metaresearch and open science now counts 150 accounts. I will star a second for those who are not in (sorry but it is difficult to be exhaustive). Please jus answer 👋 to this post. go.bsky.app/R8RNJgc
