Join Steve Boneham and Joe Corneli for a discussion on the intersection of research culture and open research. In this webinar, we will reflect on a series of events and activities organised within the UK Reproducibility Network’s (UKRN) Training Community of Practice.

The session will outline the development of a training community of practice, which aims at accelerating the uptake of open research practices by improving institutional training in this area. The community has been involved in co-designing resources and fostering peer-to-peer learning. The aim is to increase both the quantity and quality of training at UKRN Open Research Programme institutions and beyond, ultimately leading to a more cohesive, participatory research culture.

We will consider the wide range of ways for community members to contribute to new resources and reflect on ways to improve their training practices. We’ll also touch on recent discussions about epistemic diversity and interdisciplinary working.
