Code Ocean -- Reproducibility Workshop: Best Practices and Easy Steps to Save Time for Yourself and Other Researchers

The recent attention to the challenges of reproducibility is new, but the problem itself is as old as science. Fortunately, over the past decade, a range of tools and resources have been created to help scientists communicate more easily and clearly, helping to make our work easier to build on, for ourselves and other researchers.

This workshop will highlight some of the resources available to help share code, data, reagents, and methods. Speakers from Addgene, Code Ocean, and Protocols.io will discuss a variety of reproducibility tools and then will be available during a hands-on section to work with students directly.

Join us on January 25th to:
Understand how sharing all research reagents and detailing research methods can increase visibility to and extend the distribution of your research.
Gain insight into best practices for computational and empirical reproducibility and how they can save you time.
Explore a range of tools that can help in the practice of sharing and extending research including Addgene, bio-protocol, Code Ocean, Dryad, figshare, ICLAC, Jupyter Notebooks, protocols.io, and RRID with practical demonstrations from Addgene, Code Ocean, and protocols.io.

Food will be provided at 12pm. We recommend you bring your laptops for the hands-on, one-on-one portion starting at 1pm.
