The UCL recently published a "[Statement on Transparency in Research](https://www.ucl.ac.uk/research/sites/research/files/ucl_statement_on_transparency_in_research_november_20191.pdf)". *Kudos to UCL for taking such a leading role in committing to good scientific practice!* Some key excerpts: > UCL’s Research Strategy emphasises our commitment to responsible > research, including a commitment to open research and ensuring open > access to research outputs. > [...] > Making research open is a core part of research transparency, and open > research practices are rewarded in promotion decisions. > [...] > The reproducibility of both research methods and research results (see > Annex for definitions) is critical to research in certain contexts, > particularly in the experimental sciences with a quantitative focus. > Reproducibility forms part of UCL’s wider commitment to transparency > and rigour in all of our research. > [...] > UCL is committed to supporting transparency in research and to > developing approaches to improve the quality of the research we > produce. This includes: > - continuing to support open research (including through the Academic > Careers Framework1) and the necessary cultural change, as discussed in > LERU’s policy paper on open science > - the development of governance processes to enable research outputs > to be found, accessed, and reused appropriately when open sharing is > not appropriate > - the development of additional training, including in research > methods, and consideration of how to promote transparency in academic > teaching > - improving the sharing of knowledge and best practice across UCL. --- ![](cid:8D470805-F102-46CE-98E1-5D964952122B@psy.lmu.de "PastedImage.png") http://www.osc.lmu.de/ Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/lmu_osc Join our email newsletter: https://lists.lrz.de/mailman/listinfo/lmu-osc [Unsubscribe](https://lists.lrz.de/mailman/listinfo/lmu-osc) from the newsletter.
