Foundation of Center for Reproducible Science at UZH
Big news: Zurich University UZH now has a Center for Reproducible Science! Congrats @crsuzh http://www.crs.uzh.ch/ Here's their mission statement:
The objective of the Center of Reproducible Science (CRS) is to improve the overall reproducibility of empirical scientific research at UZH and to promote original research in reproducibility studies and methodology related to reproducibility. One of the main additional values of the CRS is that researchers of UZH who are active in methodological aspects of research get together to discuss these challenges, keep each other updated on advances from different fields which typically do not communicate with each other intensively and hopefully to propose common solutions. Moreover, UZH researchers who are invested in replication or reproducibility efforts can get together with the methodologists of the CRS either through training activities, direct collaboration, or simply publications. As a result we will improve overall quality and reproducibility of empirical scientific research at UZH.
They also look for a post-doc to "develop faculty specific training activities and participate in research activities related to reproducibility": http://www.crs.uzh.ch/dam/jcr:9fdaaa9a-6dea-440a-9309-4b389d3f952f/CRSPostdo... ---  http://www.osc.lmu.de/
