Discussions about metascience are frequently not about science, but about money. From reforming grantmaking regimes to new frameworks for evaluating the impact of funding, much of the science reform agenda focuses on how to allocate dollars to good …

We live in an exciting, dynamic time for science, medicine, and publication. Rapid technological and clinical advances are being disseminated more rapidly than ever before imagined. In this milieu, Elsevier is very pleased to bring you a new surgical …

This editorial announces the decision of the Canadian Journal of Experimental Psychology (CJEP) to offer Open Science Framework (OSF) Badges. The Centre for Open Science provides tools to facilitate open science practices. These include the OSF …

Academic institutions in Europe (e.g. universities, research funding institutions, academies) are increasingly committing themselves to ‘open science’ principles (see e.g. http://openscienceasap. org/open-science/). Those principles are increasingly …

Reproducible research and open science practices have the potential to accelerate scientific progress by allowing others to reuse research outputs, and by promoting rigorous research that is more likely to yield trustworthy results. However, these …

Conservation science is a multidisciplinary and collaborative discipline. This journal's policy is to encourage transparent and open practices in science, including sharing of data, code, and survey instruments. Such practices are especially …

The scientific endeavor is one in which the capacity to replicatefindings is a foundational tenant. It is unfortunate that therehave been a number of highly publicized cases over the pastdecade of scientists who have not practiced science with …

Open source software is often seen as a path to reproducibility in computational science. In practice there are many obstacles, even when the code is freely available, but open source policies should at least lead to better quality code.

Many scientific fields are facing a reproducibility crisis, revealed where replication fails to reproduce findings from previous work. This irreproducibility leads to the promulgation of inappropriate evidence.

Plan E for Education is my proposal that a proportion of the educational resources generated in publicly funded universities be made freely available for sharing and use by others. Thus, high quality education, produced through public funding, could …
