Curvenote Launches New Scientific Journal with the Physiome Project Curvenote, a new publishing platform and writing tool designed for scientists in the age of open science, has launched their first scientific journal with the Physiome Project. The open-access journal, which focuses on mathematical models of physiological processes, aims to promote reproducibility and open science by [...]
Code is at the heart of computational social and behavioral science. To increase code reliability and reproducibility, Nature Human Behavior is implementing formal peer review of the code behind computational models whenever they are essential to published research. They ask authors to prepare and store their code with readability, transparency, and future replicability in mind.
The American Physiological Society (APS) announced it will provide authors with improved guidance for article submission. Research articles published in APS journals are expected to report experimental methods in sufficient detail to allow for transparency of data and replication by others. The ability of others to reproduce results validates original findings and can advance research. [...]
The Center for Reproducible Biomedical Modeling has a new publication, Practical Resources for Enhancing the Reproducibility of Mechanistic Modeling in Systems Biology. It is now available on ResearchGate. Authors: Michael Blinov, John Gennari, Jonathan Karr, Ion Moraru, David Nickerson, Herbert Sauro Highlights • Reproducibility is critical to the advancement of computational modeling. • The current [...]
The Center for Reproducible Biomedical Modeling would like to invite you to a talk by Auckland Bioengineering Institute's Dr. Peter Hunter entitled, "12 Labours: Extending the Physiome Project to the clinic and to home-based healthcare”. Distinguished Professor Peter Hunter of the Auckland Bioengineering Institute was recognized at the University of Auckland's Research Awards, winning a Vice-Chancellor's [...]
The Next Web (TNW) just published an interesting story addressing the problem of centralizing ongoing attempts of reproducibility. Could centralization save tremendous amounts of time and energy? “'Unreproducible work wastes the time and effort of well-meaning researchers, and authors should strive to ensure at least one public implementation of their work exists,' ContributionSecure14, who preferred [...]
We've all ecountered this funny, but depressing experience in science and research. This video tells an all-too-familiar story. https://youtu.be/N2zK3sAtr-4
PLOS Computational Biology has announced the official launch of their Reproducibility Modelling pilot, in collaboration with the Center for Reproducible Biomedical Modelling, The aim is to support improved reproducibility of systems biology or physiology-based models that are submitted to PLOS Computational Biology. Authors with relevant models in their manuscript will be able to take part in [...]
