🚨 We're launching a special thematic focus on deforestation in the Global South! 🚨. Join us as we systematically assess research on deforestation, a key issue at the science-policy interface. 🧵👇. #OpenScience #Deforestation.

The Tilburg Replication Games are over! We had lots of fun and are looking forward to the @tibertilburg symposium starting tomorrow.

@GiveWell It’s an honest conversation about the state of reproducibility in high-impact, policy-relevant research. 🎧 Listen here:.

@GiveWell We collaborated late 2024 to answer this second question. We contacted dozens of researchers, asking for replication materials. The result? Very few had data or code available. We talked with Adam about what that means—and what comes next.

@GiveWell Funders like GiveWell play a major role in shaping research incentives. So we asked: What do they think about reproduction and replication? And more importantly—do the the randomized controlled trials underlying the assessment of their Top Charities reproduce?.

🎙️ New episode of Allegedly Does Not Replicate is out!. This time, we talk with Adam Salisbury from @GiveWell about funders, transparency, and… ghost data. A thread 🧵👇.

We have 8 replication games over the next 13 weeks (Tilburg, Bordeaux, Brno, Galway, Berlin, Paris, Lyon and Ottawa)! Not too late to register to any of these events:.

-replicators write to COPE.-Springer retracts original article.-author asked us to release a response as an I4R DP.-replicators respond to response.-author respond to replicators' response.

-replicators asked us to release their comment as an I4R DP.-replicators think that their comment is rejected but editor in chief write them that they never officially submitted.-they do and get immediately desk rejected. .

To (briefly) sum up:.-replicators write a comment.-editor in chief starts an investigation.-editor in chief asks author to write a new article, does not retract and write a letter. .

Of note, the editorial board at JPopE had decided not to retract the article. They instead invited the original author to write a new article. So the retraction by Springer goes against the initial decision of editors. The original author disagrees with this retraction.
