**Reproducible research: transparency and translational impact**
*John P.A. Ioannidis, MD, DSc*

C.F. Rehnborg Chair in Disease Prevention; Professor of Medicine, of 
Health Research and Policy, of Biomedical Data Science, and of 
Statistics, Stanford University; Co-director, Meta-Research Innovation 
Center at Stanford (METRICS)

Abstract: Theoretical insights, simulations, and empirical data converge 
that in the current research environment a substantial segment of 
published research yields results that are not credible. Moreover, among 
the results that are credible a large share cannot be translated 
meaningfully and thus end up being not useful. The lecture will assess 
the scope of this evidence and will focus on solutions that have been 
proposed to make research more reproducible and with greater 
translational impact. Many of these solutions center around optimizing 
transparency. Transparency can clearly help reproducibility, but this 
alone may not suffice to make research outcomes also more useful. 
Different solutions will be discussed with emphasis on biomedical and 
social sciences, although the challenges cover all scientific fields and 
comparative data will be presented across different fields.
