Peer review is one method of quality control in scientific publishing. A topic of discussion in the open science community is open peer review, where the peer review reports are shared alongside the published article. As a reviewer, you often have the possibility of signing your review, to disclose your identity to the authors. In […]
This event is postponed until November The Publishing Trap is an open-source board game that allows participants to explore the impact of scholarly communications choices and discuss the role of open access in research by following the lives of four researchers – from doctoral research to their academic legacies. The game is designed to be […]
Preregistration is the practice of documenting your research plan at the beginning of your study and storing that plan in a read-only public repository. But: are there drawbacks to preregistering your study? Let’s discuss it during this OSC/e lunch meetup.
Join a Community Networking event with drinks and snacks where we can discuss how we can incorporate open science principles into our daily lives as researchers. The idea is simple: to get to know your peers after a long period of online meetups and have discussions about open science over drinks and snacks.
During this hands-on event, you will have a chance to get familiar with the new 4TU.ResearchData repository by using your own data. You will also be able to exchange ideas and experiences with fellow researchers and learn about the latest developments in research data management. Lunch and drinks will be provided, so all you need […]

Interested in making your thesis open & reproducible? I went into the rabbit hole, so you don’t have to. I will share my experience of writing my PhD thesis, using GitHub, R, and Docker. No prior experience of these tools is needed. I will also discuss the challenges that I had when I revisited my […]
The use and sharing of real data presents several challenges, including privacy risks, confidentiality concerns, access limitations. Even when available, it may not be fit for purpose. Synthetic data offers a powerful alternative. In this session, we’ll explore the latest advancements in synthetic data and introduce BlueGen.ai, a tool for generating high-quality synthetic datasets. We’ll […]
OpenML is a platform that democratizes machine learning by facilitating open science in machine learning research. While the platform is founded in the Netherlands and hosted in Eindhoven, its development is an international effort of voluntary contributors. In this talk Pieter will give a brief introduction to OpenML but also share his experience as a […]
Studies in scientific literature often suffer from systematic biases toward statistically significant findings. Two of the most common sources of such bias are selective reporting and publication bias, both of which can lead to misleading scientific claims. To address these issues, Preregistration and Registered Reports have emerged as tools that aim to counteract such bias […]
This 1,5hrs session explores the importance of reproducibility in research and how 4TU.ResearchData supports researchers in making their work more transparent and trustworthy. We’ll reflect on how 4TU.ResearchData piloted the facilitation of reproducibility checks within the CODECHECK initiative. Join us for a short presentation and open discussion on the value of checking code — and […]
Your Data Steward might tell you to make your data FAIR, but what happens when they try to do it themselves? In this meet-up, I will share my journey of making my own research data FAIR. My data will be about social and behavioral sciences (social psychology), but I believe my learning and suffering will […]
