Congrats on the launch of Replication Research from JCRE! Great to see another venue promoting transparency, rigor, and replication in research.
ReplicationResearch.org is now open for submissions!
Submit replications and reproductions from many different fields, as well as conceptual contributions. With diamond OA, open and citable peer review reports, and reproducibility checks, we push the boundaries of open and fair publishing.
