Dutch Reproducibility Network Launch Symposium

Date & Time 27 October 2023 (0900-1700 CEST)
Location University of Amsterdam

The central mission of the NLRN is to foster reproducible and transparent research across scholarly disciplines. With this symposium, we want to facilitate the discussion of challenges and opportunities of research reproducibility and encourage new collaborations around this important topic.

The one-day event will bring together stakeholders from different parts of the research ecosystem — including peer-led grassroots initiatives, research institutions, research support services, and external stakeholders — to build connections, identify needs and resources, showcase existing efforts, and start shaping the reproducibility agenda.
