Research Practices and Reproducible Research Harvard Catalyst Biostatistics Seminar The way research is selected for funding, designed, conducted, analyzed, and published can have a substantial impact on the reproducibility of scientific results. Empirical evidence suggests that the efficiency of many currently applied research practices is suboptimal, and there is wide variability across different scientific fields in this regard. This leads to a high prevalence of biased results. Dr. Ioannidis will peruse the current landscape and discuss different possibilities that have been proposed on...
