DESCRIPTION:Reproducibility is held as the gold standard for scientific re
 search. The legitimacy of any published work depends on the question: can 
 we access the data\, replicate the analysis and come to the same results? 
 In many cases\, the answer is no. In Political Science\, Economics\, Psych
 ology and many other fields\, scandals involving fabricated data have stir
 red a debate that calls for fundamental changes in the way research is don
 e. This talk will discuss how universities\, journals\, funders and resear
 chers can nurture a reproducibility culture to ensure that the gold standa
 rd of reliable\, credible and valid research is upheld.
