ReproducibiliTea

The aims of the ReproducibiliTea initiative are to:

  1. increase awareness, knowledge and skills for open and reproducible science
  2. build an open science community, to help, learn from and support each other in our open science endeavors;
  3. assist in making regular (small) steps towards open & reproducible science.

The idea is to have regular meetings on any reproducibility related topic, from discussing bias in the literature, a work-session on preprints/preregistrations or a workshop on r-markdown or GitHub. What the contents will be exactly is to be decided by us all and will change from meeting to meeting. For a bit more background on the concept, including suggested reading materials see the official ReproducibiliTea OSF and the ReproducibiliTea Groningen OSF pages.

More info here 		14.00-15.00(CET) More info here Sample size calculations: a game we play (Michiel de Boer)In this session Michiel de Boer will provide a short, provocative introduction about sample size calculations (also sometimes referred to as power calculations). He claims that the way we conduct sample size calculations currently is not much more than a ritual we have learned to play. Partly based on a recent manuscript by Daniel Lakens (2021) about justification of sample sizes (see suggested reading), he suggests a couple of ways forward, which will be open to further discussion.
