Reflection
Objectives
This week, I would like you to reflect on the extent to which the reproducibility crisis extends beyond psychology and human neuroscience.
Most of you have varied backgrounds, which span computer science, physics, chemistry, biology, maths etc.
Therefore, I would like you to situate what you have learnt in the last 4 weeks within a broader context of scientific research more generally.
See below for details of the assignment.
Lecture slides
There is no lecture this week.
Discussion paper
It is your task to go away and find relevant papers to discuss and include in your reflective writing piece.
To get you thinking outside of psychology and neuroscience, here are some recent reports in the journal Nature about untrustworthy medical research:
Assignment
