A dream collaboration of mine ever since I first heard of the Museum of Failure. Thanks to the incredible efforts of @marcel_hobma, that dream has become reality. Hopefully a physical exposition will follow in the future!
Exciting news! We're teaming up with the @MuseumofFailure to bring you an exhibition on failure in science!
Knowledge needs failure. To highlight this, MOX and JOTE's @marcel_hobma collected fifteen cases from different eras and disciplines: museumoffailure.com/exhibiti…

This is enough to have a) Every article computationally reproduced b) all preregistrations verified and c) a random subset of all articles independently replicated. This what journals should be doing!

Most scientific published studies have “positive results.” But what about the papers with negative results?
Dr. Sarahanne Field, editor of @jtrialerror, joins us to discuss how failure can make science stronger.

I would caveat this that the current prevalent model is expensive. I don't think all models have to be & amazing diamond/community led publishing exists that doesn't cost this much.

I personally hope countries will refrain from these top-down policies and let researchers decide form themselves whether to publish open access or via more traditional routes.
