Inspiring presentations from our three Credibility Prize winners at this morning's session at #bnamembersmeeting2024.
Our speakers covered credible practices such as prereg posters & Registered reports, the need to extend open science to the Global South, to sharing code.
We're delighted to announce the winners of the 2024 BNA Credibility in Neuroscience Prizes!

Why should you publish in society/charity journals like @braincomms @BritishNeuro @BNAJournal @EJNeuroscience ? Because they're great and support neuroscientists! Read more here: academic.oup.com/braincomms/…

Are you travelling to Aberdeen (from London) for the @ARUKscientist Conference? It occurs to me with so many people heading north... there might be an oppertunity to arrange group travel - UCL travel policy restricts flying, and trains (as we know) can be sketchy.

Deadline is today! Are you or do you know someone making an effort to improve reproducibility in neuroscience? Now’s your chance to get the recognition you deserve!
We launched our Credibility Prizes in 2021 as part of our ongoing work to shift research culture and celebrate success to make research more credible.
One of the three Credibility Prizes is aimed at neuroscientists at the start of their research careers bnacredibility.org.uk/prizes
