The Costs of Reproducibility

Neuron. 2019 Jan 2;101(1):11-14. doi: 10.1016/j.neuron.2018.11.030.

Abstract

Improving the reproducibility of neuroscience research is of great concern, especially to early-career researchers (ECRs). Here I outline the potential costs for ECRs in adopting practices to improve reproducibility. I highlight the ways in which ECRs can achieve their career goals while doing better science and the need for established researchers to support them in these efforts.
