As stated in the "Manifesto for Reproducible Science," the overarching goal of the research transparency movement is to improve "the reliability and efficiency of scientific research" and "increase the credibility of the published scientific literature and accelerate discovery" (Munafò et al, 2017). Given the critical role that curated and shared data plays in conducting reproducible science, not to mention the training and advocacy that data professionals provide, it is clear that there is significant common ground shared by these two communities. Panelists will discuss research transparency and reproducibility by highlighting timely projects, defining the main terms (e.g., replicability, reproducibility), sharing tools (e.g., Open Science Framework, Project TIER), and workflows (CURE, R-Squared) that could assist scholars. Panelists represent a variety of disciplines and experience with reproducibility and will share ideas on how the various communities can best work together. Presented by three ICPSR Official Representatives: Harrison Dekker of the University of Rhode Island, Norm Medeiros of Haverford College, and Florio Arguillas of Cornell University. Learn more at https://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/content/membership/datafair/schedule.html
