Reproducibility is important to the future of research, and is all about working collaboratively, and openly with others. In this workshop we will introduce concepts and tools that researchers are developing and using which aim to make their research more reproducible – so that others can examine their processes, and build on top of findings more easily.
7 steps for reproducible research:
1. Planning to be organised
2. Keeping your files tidy and organised
3. Methodology and protocols
4. Documentation and writing it down
5. Testing and controls
6. Automation
7. Publishing, persistent identifiers and preparing for reuse
You'll come away from this workshop with useful tips and tools you can start using straight away to improve your research practices.
Learning outcomes
By the end of this workshop you will be able to:
