New Member: Biomedical Center joins the OSC

[News from our website: https://www.osc.uni-muenchen.de/news/bmc_joins_osc/index.html] The OSC welcomes the Biomedical Center (BMC) as new institutional member 29.03.2022 The Biomedical Center (BMC) on the Life Science Campus Großhadern/Martinsried brings together eight institutes and chairs of the Medical Faculty with about 55 research groups. As a center for applied cell science it bridges the gap between basic research and clinical application. The BMC researchers explore cell fates and cell plasticity from basic mechanisms to pathology and repair. "The basic research conducted at the BMC is largely exploratory and thus not very standardized and particularly exposed to the problem of lack of reproducibility", says Dr. Tobias Straub, head of the Core Facility Bioinformatics at the BMC. To address this, the BMC has set itself the goal of implementing Open Science standards and practices across the institute. The focus is on the core topics 'Experimental Design', 'Documentation' and 'Data Management' in line with the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Re-usable). Pioneering work needs to be done in the development of guidelines and structures, as Tobias Straub points out, since there is very limited experience with corresponding practices in the field of exploratory basic biomedical research so far. Networking with the OSC is therefore particularly valuable for the BMC to exchange experiences, learn about best practices from different fields and get in touch with experts on open science topics.

17.3., 18:00: Fire side chat on Reproducibility (Bayerische Akademie)
by LMU Open Science Center News March 14, 2022

Perspectives on the replicability of research across scientific disciplines Thursday, 17.3.22, 18:00 - 19:15 (online) https://badw.de/veranstaltungen.html?tx_badwdb_events%5Baction%5D=show&tx_b…<https://badw.de/veranstaltungen.html?tx_badwdb_events[action]=show&tx_badwd…> From the website: * Fireside Chat The last two years have demonstrated the important role played by reliable scientific evidence in guiding how both policy makers and the public respond to crises. At the same time, a lack of trust in scientists and other experts has emerged as an important constraint on our ability to address the ever changing realities of the COVID pandemic. This fireside chat will explore the replicability of reliability of scientific findings and take a critical look at the measures taken by different disciplines to assure that scientific evidence is dependable and worthy of the public‘s trust. This fireside chat is organized by Peter Schwardmann, Hauke Marquardt and the working group on “Replicability and reliability of scientific research“ from the Young Academy in the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities. The working group investigates the practices and mechanisms that underlie reliable scientific evidence. Peter Schwardmann is an assistant professor of behavioral economics at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. He previously worked at LMU Munich. Hauke Marquardt is associate professor of solid Earth sciences at the University of Oxford. Peter Schwardman is a member of the Young Academy since 2017 and Hauke Marquardt was a member of the Young Academy until 2021. * Vortragende PROF. DR. PETER B. BECKER, Head of Molecular Biology Section at the Faculty of Medicine at LMU Munich; DR. TAISUKE IMAI, Assistant Professor at the Department of Economics at LMU Munich; PROF. SILVIA SACCARDO, Assistant Professor at the Social and Decision Science Department at Carnegie Mellon University * Link https://cmu.zoom.us/j/94831867415?pwd=MWM3MTYwb0d0TmV3VTkraHpvb2NNZz0 * Because of the ongoing COVID pandemic this fireside chat will be taking place online. If you want to attend, please send an email with the subject line “I will attend the fireside chat on replicability“ to schwardmann(a)cmu.edu<mailto:schwardmann@cmu.edu> and then use the zoom link to join the event. ____________________________________________________ [cid:2F2612E6-747B-428F-94D3-5066F2ED7A8B] 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.
