Data reuse represents an opportunity to accelerate science, reduce costs and increase the value of investments. But to date, the field hasn't placed equal emphasis on the reuse side of the data-sharing equation, writes @bendichter.com

⚠️ Effective Monday 2/10/25, NIH indirect rate capped at 15%. Applies to existing & future grants.

—> Deep budget cuts & program closures coming to a university near you.

Is this the break the glass moment for university administrators who have been silent so far about the attack on science?

Wondering what INCF is up to in 2025? We have lots of activities planned for this calendar year - here is a list of events we will host or attend in 2025: bit.ly/42uUnRn

See you there!

The ultimate goal of #FAIR is to optimize data reuse. To achieve this, (meta)data should be well-described so they can be replicated &/or combined in different settings.

"A study of federally funded research projects in the United States estimated that principal investigators spend on average about 45% of their time on administrative activities related to applying for and managing projects rather than conducting active research"

"The most significant change from the previous policy is the removal of the 12-month embargo period before manuscripts resulting from NIH funding must be made publicly available." Beautiful. No longer allowing journal profits to hold back science. www.nih.gov/about-nih/wh...

Regularly tempted to write in my NIH grants innovation section: "Funding software that already exists and works well would be highly innovative for the NIH."

(I bet half the panel would break down ROFL, but I'm also highly skeptical that I'd get a good score, or that the PO would be amused.)

I think there is a way to do exploratory research very rigorously. Just use full transparency. Publish the entire github history for the analysis chain, nits, zits, and all. And of course, focus more on the strength of evidence than posthoc narrative building.
I really enjoyed reading this world view in Nature about the importance of exploratory research in the social sciences by @balazsaczel.bsky.social and am wondering what people think. Do you generally agree with his point? 🧪@natureportfolio.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/d41...
Let the data talk: embrace exploratory research
Open-ended research is essential to building solid hypotheses in the social sciences — without it, even the best-planned analyses can fail.
