New episode of Nullius In Verba, part 1 of 2: What is metascience? https://t.co/vb7xB3s1Dd We dig into the history, starting from 1938, and discuss the role of philosophy, sociology, and psychology, and what, if anything, makes metascience it's own discipline.

New episode of @nulliusverbapod on Premature Experimentation: https://t.co/fUOb353ciy Are experiments overused, and should we make greater use of other approaches to knowledge generation? If so, which methods should we use instead? Enjoy!

In our next episode of Nullius In Verba we will dive into the history of metascience. The first mention of 'metascience' in the literature we could find is Morris, 1938. Do you know of an earlier mention of the term 'metascience'?

New episode of @nulliusverbapod on exploratory experimentation. Why does exploratory research seem to be valued less? How can we do it well?

We are very happy that the content of our little podcast is resonating with fellow academics. Although, with more than a thousand listeners per episode, maybe we are not that little anymore 🤗
If you are a researcher in health sciences and haven't already done so, I would encourage you to give @nulliusverbapod a listen. Some very thought-provoking discussions and readings that I wish I had been exposed to much earlier in my career.

Hard to express what a relief it is to have just submitted the first complete draft of my book manuscript to @ucpress 😮💨🥳 5+ years in the making. 249 pages. 82,000 words. 0 ChatGPT. 😉 A million thanks to all those who gave me guidance and inspired me along the way! 🙏

New episode of @nulliusverbapod ! We (very) critically discuss the classic paper by John Ioannidis 'Why most published research findings are false'. What did he get wrong, and why is it still interesting to read the paper?

New episode of @nulliusverbapod on Pseudoscience https://t.co/rxQzYWMW4z We discuss the demarcation problem, why we should not ignore Pseudoscience but teach students why it is so bad, and complain about the too popular Telepathy Tapes.
