b) organisation of training initiatives aimed at building the skills to implement Open Science principles in one’s own research and institutionally with one’s own institution;

c) promotion, conduction and publishing of surveys and empirical analyses on the implementation of Open Science principles;

d) promotion and dissemination of transparent scientific practices;

e) establishment of international collaborative networks with legal entities dedicated to the promotion of Open Science;

f) support for metascientific research and multi-lab projects;

g) stimulating the participation of its members in international research projects and calls for funds related to the Association's aims;

h) advocacy to institutional decision-makers, and in particular to Italian and European legislators, for the promotion of Open Science in the management of academic and non-academic communities;

Strategic Plan: In order to plan activities for the two-year period 2023-2024, we have written a strategic plan. The plan brings together all the activities we want to implement over the two-year period of the Steering Group. You can find the plan at this link, and if you want to contribute to its realisation, send an email to us.

Your support and participation will help us drive the global movement towards a more open and reproducible science. Together, we can make a significant impact.

Mission

The Italian Reproducibility Network (ITRN) is a peer-led consortium that aims to investigate the factors that contribute to robust research and disseminate them within the Italian scientific community. This is achieved by promoting initiatives and offering a hub for scientists to get in touch, exchange ideas and good practices, and promote collective learning. ITRN seeks collaboration with scientists in several disciplines, technical experts in relevant fields and stakeholders, so as to connect the widest possible spectrum of skills and knowledge.

Similarly to the other Reproducibility Networks in the world, ITRN investigates the factors that contribute to poor research reproducibility and replicability, and try to develop virtuous approaches to counter these factors and improve the quality of research. It also promotes collaboration among scientists and experts across a broad array of disciplines.
