RCR Session: Enhancing Reproducibility through Transparency in Reporting Experimental Details

This session is part of a series on Rigor & Reproducibility. NIH expects full transparency in reporting experimental details so that others may reproduce and extend the findings. This session will discuss ways to report experimental details including: open dissemination of methodology protocols, pre-registration of study protocols, and publication of registered reports (subject matter: secure & ethical data use)

This class is offered through a partnership of the library and the CTSI Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) Center.
