ReproducibiliTea Spring 2025

Autumn Semester 2025, University of Geneva

We kicked off our  ReproducibiliTea journal club with a spooky session playing the Publish or Perish game, setting the tone for fun yet critical discussions about research culture.

Our second session focused on “The use of artificial intelligence in open science: opportunities, limitations, and ethical considerations,” and we were honoured to host Prof. Giovanna Di Marzo Serugendo and Prof. Maria Assunta Cappelli. Many thanks to our speakers and all participants for an engaging, insightful discussion on how AI can both support and challenge open and reproducible science. full presentation here

 

We’re excited to share that the journal club is now on LinkedIn—stay tuned for upcoming sessions!

Spring Semester 2025, University of Geneva

We are looking back on an exciting spring semester 2025 full of open and reproducible science. We started off the semester with a fun boardgame session to introduce Open Science Practices in a gamified way. This semester, we played “The Game of Open Access” that was developed at the University of Antwerp.

For our second session this semester, we gave a joint peer review a try, inspired by the joint peer review initiative by the global ReproducibiliTea. We discussed a paper suggesting an R-Index for assessing researcher contributions to peer review (Malekzadeh (2024):

We ended the semester with two interesting talks. First, Jamil Zaghir presented a methodology for reproducible, efficient data set creation through crosslingual annotation projection. The second talk was given by Alessandra Rampinini and Valentina Borghesani, who presented challenges and their experiences in sharing open data.

We very much enjoyed this semester’s ReproducibiliTea and were happy to welcome some new researchers. We are looking forward to the upcoming fall semester!
