Southampton ReproducibiliTea is a journal club for anyone interested in robust research practice, reproducibility, replication, open science, and transparency.
Usually, in each session we discuss a paper related to a theme, or invite a speaker to do a seminar. You can also see a list of our previous sessions and papers at the bottom of this page.
Date: 31st January
Time: 12.30-14.00
Place: 32/2097 and online
Topic: Research Culture Initatives in the UK
Registration form (please complete by end of day on Thursday 25th January).
The next session is a joint ReproducibiliTea and UKRN Southampton event. Discussion will be centred around this recently published UKRI report, Research Culture Initatives in the UK. The event will be both in-person (32/2097) and online, and lunch will be provided for in-person attendees. A calendar invite will be sent out closer to the event with a Teams link for online attendees. Please register for the event by completing this form by end of day on Thursday 25th January.
To be invited to our other upcoming sessions, or if you have any questions, please contact one of the organisers at reproducibiliteasouthampton@groups.soton.ac.uk.

Please note: the Southampton UKRN & ReproducabiliTea teams are not a Library initiative, they draw members from all areas of the University and the Research Data team in the Library supports its endeavours (and not just because we like tea and cake!).
ReproducabiliTea is an international ECR-led journal club initiative that helps young researchers create local Open Science groups that discuss issues, papers and ideas to do with improving science. For more information see the ReproducabiliTea Wiki pages and https://reproducibilitea.org for more information about ReproducibiliTea Journal Clubs.. ReproducibiliTea is part of the UK Reproducibility Network. You can follow them on Twitter for updates @ReproducibiliT or @ukrepro
The sessions are open to anybody interested in robust research practice, reproducibility, replication, open science, and transparency. In each session, we will discuss a paper relating to one of these themes.
We will also have guest speakers running seminars about reproducibility and open science practice.
You can join our Microsoft Teams group by emailing one of the team members whose contact details are above. This is the best way to be part of the Southampton ReproducibiliTea community (or communiTea, if you please!) and stay up to date with when our sessions are running.
These courses have been discussed in the Southampton ReproducabiliTEA sessions:
