Transforming unpublishable results into recognized scientific contributions, we help researchers make every discovery count.

Join us in building a more transparent and impactful research ecosystem!
It’s #OpenAccessWeek!

On Wednesday, we will join two talks: at Udruga Penkala 🇭🇷 and at the Max-Delbrück Center 🇩🇪, to talk about making every result count in science.

Join the conversation about what deserves credit in research:

What does Responsible Research Assessment (RRA) mean?
It’s about moving beyond publication counts to reward quality, diversity, and real impact.
RRA values all contributions—mentoring, collaboration, societal impact—and promotes fair recognition for every researcher.

“If you torture data long enough, it will confess to anything.” — R. Coase.
Negative results matter. Share all outcomes—positive or negative—as Marbles at researchagora.com.
Let’s reward transparency and honesty.
