Reproducibility Crisis in Science

Описание: This podcast-like video explores issues impacting the credibility and progress of scientific research. Topics include discussion of large-scale initiative in Brazil that attempted to replicate numerous published biomedical studies, finding a low rate of reproducibility. While examining research misconduct isn't new, detailing various forms beyond simple fabrication and highlighting motivating factors like career pressure and financial incentives need to be discussed to get the full picture of this crisis. The misaligned incentives within academic publishing, particularly the "publish or perish" culture and the emphasis on journal prestige, further suggests complex factors and scientific culture contributes to problems like the reproducibility crisis and hinders innovation. Collectively, the sources (below) underscore systemic challenges within the scientific community that impact the reliability of findings and the fair evaluation of researchers.
