SORTEE Webinar: On what makes good sharable and reproducible R code, how to do it, and why it’s good for science For this month's SORTEE webinar, Dr. Dax Kellie from the Atlas of Living Australia will present on good, sharable, and reproducible R code in science

In one week I'll be talking about tips for reproducible R code and why science would love you to try these tips on your own code too 🧪😍🌏

It's an online talk, so feel free to watch comfortably from your couch. Hope to see you there!

As a producer of open educational resources & teacher of open research practices, I realised the vast majority of researchers do not know what licenses mean. I’ve started to write plainly „you are free reuse or adapt this material by citing it like this [name title DOI]“ - maybe that’s all it takes?

Why sharing your research data? What is the difference between open and FAIR data ? Should you get a coauthorship when another researcher reuse your data? These are some of the questions I address in this presentation. Slides are CC.BY. 4.0 - feel free to reuse giving us credit ;)

There are lots of professional data repositories to share your data (see www.re3data.org) - if you want to share the code as well you can push to github and archive it on zenodo with a DOI.
