Episode 34 - Clarissa Carneiro

Early in May we talked to Clarissa (@clari_carneiro) from the Brazilian Reproducibility Initiative (@BrRepInitiative). This project is awesome - think many labs for Brazilian biomedical sciences, with a dash of meta in there too! Tune in to hear about this amazing project.

Episode 33 with Flavio Azevedo on FORRT

Our latest awesome ECR you need to watch out for is Flavio Azevedo @Flavio_Azevedo_. He was recently named one of one of the top 100 global shapers from Portugal! (https://www.100oportunidades.pt/) and by gosh he's just one of our favorite people too.

Flavio tells us all about the importance of openness in reproducibility in teaching. He is leading an amazing project: a Framework for Open and Reproducible Research Training, or FORRT. The project advocates for integrating open and reproducible research practices into not only methods training, but subject material too. FORRT will be doing this with a dedicated platform collating teaching materials and the pedagogues to teach them. Listen in to hear what else FORRT has to offer, and how you can get involved!

Episode 32 - Research under Crisis with Anne Scheel

We have a very special guest in this lockdown episode of ReproducibiliTea: Anne Scheel (@annemscheel). We reflect on research during the COVID-19 pandemic and the wide range of responses from the research community.

We talked to Anne about her recent blogpost “Crisis research, fast and slow” (http://www.the100.ci/2020/03/26/crisis-research-fast-and-slow/) - her first in two years! A lot of research is being rushed to testing and to (pre)print; Anne worries that some of this goes against our collective efforts to promote ‘slow’ science.

Anne masterfully flips the interview on Amy and Sam to give a teaser about their upcoming studies, and how they are trying to avoid the potential pitfalls of fast research during crisis mode.

Listen through the end for some stellar ECR advice from our latest Awesome ECR

Episode 31: Class 2 - What even is a replication?

It’s week 2 of Amy’s “Psychology as a Robust Science” course and we are discussing replications. What are they? Is there a distinction between direct and conceptual replications? Do direct replications actually exist? Tune in to (maybe) find out!

SolidariTEA 2 - Green Advocacy With Sander van Bree

SolidariTEA is our mini series where we stand in solidarity against the worse side of academia, and stand in solidarity alongside the many awesome advocates for improving academia.

This time Sophia talks with Sander van Bree (@sandervanbree) about green advocacy. What actions can you take to reduce your negative impact on the environment; and what can academia do collectively? If you're still not sure on all things green advocacy after listening, hit him up on the twitters!

Sander is doubly awesome because he made Sam's life super easy by sharing these useful resources:

- Sander's Cusanus presentation (https://tinyurl.com/whatseffective)

- A study that plots out the emissions of individual actions (link goes to best figure https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/aa7541/meta#erlaa7541s3).

- Here's Cool Effect, which looks to be the best offsetting organization (https://www.cooleffect.org/).

- Here's his Twitter, if people want to read/listen to more of his work (https://twitter.com/sandervanbree)

Episode 30 – What are we doing? AKA the golden pancake

We are starting a new 8 part series following the structure of Amy’s “Psychology as a Robust Science” course (https://www.amyorben.com/docs/syllabus.pdf). We will take a specific aspect from each week and dive into the detail.

This week: Introductions and Merton’s norms, what is Science? We discuss each of Mertons norms in turn; communalism, universalism, disinterestedness, and organised scepticism.

Useful resources:

Merton, Robert K. ‘The Normative Structure of Science’, 1942.

Episode 29 - Four Hero Origin Stories To Start 2020

Welcome to 2020. We are back to our regular recording and releasing schedule. Sorry for the wait, and thank you for your patience.

We begin with Sophia and Sam's starts to the year at the Advanced Methods for Reproducible Science workshop, aka #Repro20. All three of us have attended this workshop over the last 3 years. Last year Amy returned to talk about her year after #Repro18, and Sam returned to do the same about lessons from #Repro19.

The workshop schedule is here: https://osf.io/cdrfk/

And, slides from the talks and workshops are in the repository:

Check them out for some awesome materials.

The workshop had 30 future leaders, aka heroes, of open and reproducible research - all coming together to learn, share experiences, and discuss how to build a bright future of research.

Shout out to two projects:

1. Open Research Calendar (@OpenResearchCal)- Collecting #openresearch events in one place! (Alexandra Lautarescu, @AleLautaresc; Bradley Kennedy, @bradpsych; Cassandra Gould van Praag ,@cassgvp; Esther Plomp ,@PhDToothFAIRy)

2. Open CV - a project to help ECRs incorporate open and reproducible research practices into their CVs (Loukia Tzavella ,@LTzavella; Sam Parsons, @sam_d_parsons; Alexander Kirchner-Häusler, @KirchnerHausler; Jiv Ramduny, @JRamduny)

In addition to the awesome people leading these projects, our special feature in this episode is four quick fire interviews with four of the heroes we met at the workshop - here's their origin stories:

1. Dr Robby Thibault (@rt_thibault)

2. Ms Kelly Lloyd (@KellyElizaLloyd)

3. Mr Jiv Ramduny (@JRamduny)

4. Dr Pamela Jacobsen (@pamelacjacobsen)

Have no doubt, we will be hearing from these, and more, of the awesome people from the workshop. Tune in to the pod for more!
