I am very happy that we are expanding Registered Reports to all disciplines in which we publish, which is all areas of natural, clinical and social sciences, engineering & public health. We’ve learned a lot since 2023 when we first invited RRs; we are ready to expand 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/d41...
