5th Oxford | Berlin Summer School on Open and Responsible Research in the Life Sciences 2022

2022-09-02
The Berlin Institute of Health (BIH) and the German Centre for the Protection of Laboratory Animals (Bf3R) organized a five-day summer school to guide early career researchers towards an open, transparent, and reproducible research workflow. This year a special focus lies on the ethics of animal experiments and the 3R principles (reduce, refine, replace). We will also have one lecture and two workshops on preregistration. We are excited to discuss with early career researchers from all around the world. We are pleased to meet with our colleagues from the Center for Open Science (COS) and preclinicaltrials.eu and talk about collaborations to advance preregistration in animal research.

Open science toolbox for animal research

Preregistration is one of multiple possibilities to make animal research more reliable and more transparent. We have collected many tools that can be implemented all along the research process to maximize your research output. Have a look at our table of tools and check out what could be useful for you.

Declaration of common standards for the preregistration of animal research

2022-03-16

The open science framework registry, preclinicaltrials.eu and animalstudyregistry.org have declared common standards to ensure quality and transparency of preregistration in animal research. This declaration is now available in PNAS Nexus and allows stakeholders that want to recommend preregistration to refer to registries fulfilling published standards. The three registries already ensure public accessibility, transparency in their financial sources, tracking of changes, and warranty and sustainability of data. Furthermore, their registration templates cover a minimum set of mandatory information and studies are uniquely identifiable.
