#RRiA2025

Had an amazing time at the Responsible Research in Action Unconference #RRiA2025! Met loads of amazing people, made a lot of progress on a very exciting project, and had dinner with the dinosaurs! 🦕✨

What a beautiful location for the #RRiA2025 conference dinner!

Wrapped up an excellent and productive day at #RRiA2025 with progress updates from the 10 projects - excited for the last push tomorrow morning!

Diagram contrasting how research reports typically describe participant/sample metadata (e.g. age, gender, geography, ethnicity) but metaresearch studies often omit metadata about the publications they include (e.g. author career stage, gender, institution, language, open access). The central message: to assess equity and representation, we must look beyond participants to the people and contexts shaping our research samples.

We outline a sample characteristics table for metaresearch studies + our vision for an automated workflow to make it easier to see who & what is represented in study samples, supporting generalisability & #EDI

To be continued at #RRiA2025 next week! 🚀
