How can we be more transparent and reproducible throughout the whole research process? And what lessons has he learned along the way? 🤔
Last up is @christianbuchel.bsky.social telling us about all things wrong with our current publishing system and how new models (for example @elife.bsky.social) are trying to break these barriers! 💪
Of course featuring this gem of a video by @glaucomflecken.bsky.social: youtu.be/ukAkG6c_N4M?...
