Methods, data, and code: how diverse article types can help reduce research waste and boost real-world impactIn this blog, we explore the importance of publishing all research outputs throughout the full research journey, and the wide variety of non-traditional article types supported by HRB Open Research.
-
Enables researchers to publish any research they wish to share, supporting reproducibility, transparency and impact
-
Uses an open research publishing model: publication within days of submission, followed by open invited peer review
-
Includes citations to all supporting data, enabling reanalyses, replication and reuse
Benefits for Researchers
- All types of research can be published rapidly: standard research articles, clinical trial findings, systematic reviews, study protocols, data sets, negative/null results, case reports and more.
- Authors, not editors, decide when to publish and what to publish.
- Authors can suggest peer reviewers most appropriate to their subject and whose opinions they value.
Benefits for Research
- Aims to shift the way research and researchers are evaluated.
- Moves away from journal-based measures towards direct assessment of individual outputs.
- Supports research assessment based on the intrinsic value of the research, not the venue of publication.
Benefits for Society
- Reduces the barrier to collaborative research through data sharing, transparency and attribution.
- Reduces research waste and helps to remove the bias in our understanding of research.
- Enables others to build upon new ideas right away, wherever and whoever they are.
HRB Open Research will help researchers to publish all findings quickly, easily and responsibly. This will increase transparency, reduce research waste and allow reproducibility of results. Ultimately HRB Open Research will help build more trust in the research process.
