The TIB Knowledge Loom is live! If you believe scientific knowledge should be reusable, reproducible & open, then this digital library is for you. We are an Open Science initiative promoting a cultural shift in how scientific knowledge is organized & published.

Meet Johnbosco (@biocodebreaker.bsky.social), our new #ORKGreborn curation grantee! As a bioinformatics researcher, he is helping us expand our open-source digital library into medical research. He shares his motivation for contributing to this initiative.

Meet the 2025 #ORKGreborn curation grantees who are helping us grow our #openscience digital library! Over the next few weeks, they’ll share why they’re invested in a future where all scientific knowledge is represented in open digital libraries like ORKG reborn: reborn.orkg.org/pages/submit
I often find my students' code is littered with dependencies that are loaded and then not used. This is a bad coding practice, but it's also very boring to check.
I updated {psychdsish} to include a function that does this for you.
I'm so glad you provided the code used to produce the Figures. Most repositories don't include code for reproducing the Figures. Thanks 🤝👏
A simple design framework that will massively improve your slides and your public speaking

Anyone have difficulty accessing the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory site? I haven't been able to access it in a long time! Perhaps I should try using a VPN?

@laurendsnyder.bsky.social thought you might find this interesting.
Just curious, are you able to reproduce this now? I couldn't reproduce it.
Just read this somewhere:
[remember when AI couldn’t count the number of Rs in “strawberry”? that was eight months ago).]
Verified résumés? Or give Bioinformatics tasks on the application call that require at least 6 hours to complete.

What can scientists or the public do when a publication says "data or code available upon reasonable request" - but the author doesn’t respond or refuses to share?

While authors were extremely or very helpful for 41% of experiments, they were minimally helpful for 9% of experiments, and not at all helpful (or did not respond to us) for 32% of experiments.
#Reproducibility
#CancerResearch
Moreover, despite contacting the authors of the original papers, we were unable to obtain these data for 68% of the experiments.

Reproducibility Project: Cancer Biology to investigate the replicability of preclinical research in cancer biology.
Conclusion: it is hard to assess whether reported findings are credible.

❓How can we make reproducibility a routine part of the publishing process❓
CODECHECK is a community-led initiative that helps verify the computational reproducibility of #scientific research. Read more on its application on our website:

Yes, you would think that the norm now sh'd be to run the code to reproduce the figures in the manuscript during review. But alas, the computing environment in which the data was analyzed such as the package versions used are rarely provided hence reproducibility is a nightmare or just impossible!

In your experience, having in mind that Air Transport remains the safest means of transport, has there been increase in the frequency of aviation disasters in the last five years or there is increased reporting/coverage?
