The UK Reproducibility Network (UKRN) is a peer-led consortium that aims to ensure the UK retains its place as a centre for world-leading research.
This will be done by investigating the factors that contribute to robust research, promoting training activities, and disseminating best practice, and working with stakeholders to ensure coordination of efforts across the sector.
It is led by Marcus Munafò (Bristol), Chris Chambers (Cardiff), Laura Fortunato (Oxford), Alexandra Collins (Imperial), and Malcolm Macleod (Edinburgh).
UKRN works across disciplines, ranging from the arts and humanities to the physical sciences, with a particular focus on the biomedical sciences.
We're represented in the UKRN community by our local network leads, Dr Simon Kolstoe, a Reader in Bioethics and University Ethics Advisor based in the School of Health and Care Professions, and Dr Matt Miller-Dicks, a Senior Lecturer in Skill Acquisition, based in the School of Sport, Health and Exercise Science.
ReproducibiliTea
ReproducibiliTea is a worldwide collection of journal clubs that regularly meet to discuss papers related to topics associated with the UKRN – including reproducibility, open science, research quality, and good/bad research practices in any field.
The ReproducibiliTea Journal Club in Portsmouth is organised by Gadda Salhab, Harry Mayes, Ismail Abdul Kader, and Lina Hillner. Events take place every other Wednesday at 4.00 pm in King Henry Building, Room 1.05. Please find the current schedule on our twitter account (@Repot_UoP).
