Gerben ter Riet (HvA): Urban Vitality Open Science Checklist: No Time to Waste
In medical research alone, each year, hundreds of billions of euros are wasted, due to poor questions, poor choice of methodologies, poor reporting and archiving. The Open Science Checklist aims to optimize research projects, from start to end, in order to research waste and increase transparency. The checklist’s innovation power lies in its practical, yet powerful combination of four inspirational sources: avoidance of research waste, replicability, integrity and openness. By embracing the checklist, research institutions and researchers alike, can contribute to the prevention of research waste through optimizing the quality and transparency of their results – changing the research climate in a positive sense.
