F1000 Reproducibility Channel

Faculty of 1000 (F1000) Research, in response to growing concerns about irreproducible science, has launched the Preclinical Reproducibility and Robustness Channel as a place to publish replication attempts - positive or negative.

"The Preclinical Reproducibility and Robustness channel is a platform for open and transparent publication of confirmatory and non-confirmatory studies in biomedical research. The channel is open to all scientists from both academia and industry and provides a centralized space for researchers to start an open dialogue, thereby helping to improve the reproducibility of studies. "

With NIH's revised grant instructions to enhance the reproducibility of research findings, this is a timely new resource.
