Science isn’t facing a reproducibility catastrophe, but the scientific community could take important steps to improve reporting and replicability, according to a new report from the US National ...

Recent decades have seen ever louder calls for improved study design and reproducibility standards in animal research. This stems from wider discussions across the scientific community about the ...

Recent years have seen perceptions of a “reproducibility crisis” grow in various disciplines. Scientists see poor levels of research reproducibility as a severe threat to scientific self-correction, ...

Science Exchange, in partnership with the open-access publisher PLoS and open data repository figshare, announced today the launch of the Reproducibility Initiative – a new program to help scientists, ...

A proposed AI-assisted workflow could make neuroscience research more reproducible and reliable by adapting software engineering practices such as containerized environments, automated data validation ...

Clarissa Carneiro, a meta scientist and currently the co-executive director at the Brazilian Reproducibility Network, experienced the reproducibility challenge firsthand. As an undergraduate student ...

Many systems like autonomous vehicle fleets and drone swarms can be modeled as Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) tasks, which deal with how multiple machines can learn to collaborate, ...

Pre-clinical animal research is typically based on single laboratory studies conducted under highly standardized conditions. But in a new study, researchers show that this near-universal practice may ...

Scientists and drug developers are always looking for new ways to hit cancer where it hurts. Recently, they’ve been focusing on metabolic pathways—how cancer cells hijack cells to support their own ...

Experimental replication is a hallmark of the scientific method. The idea is that scientific findings can be considered accurate if any researcher using the same procedures gets the same results.

The reproducibility of scientific studies has become a major issue, leading to a lack of trust in scientific results from the academic and pharmaceutical research communities. While issues around ...
