Irreproducibility of Published Research

Speaker: Jeffrey S. Flier, MD, Caroline Shields Walker Professor of Medicine, Harvard University Distinguished Service Professor and George Higginson Professor of Physiology and Medicine, HMS

Research publications will contain errors, despite procedures designed to avoid them. Fortunately, a fundamental attribute of science is its capacity for “self-correction”, through published ideas and claims being reviewed and tested by others. But today we face claims that published bioscience research is far less reproducible than anyone previously imagined. This workshop will challenge participants to seriously consider alternatives to our current approach to conducting and publishing research.

This workshop is part of the Research, Rigor & Reproducibility series
