Ideas for better science in 2016

Nature Jobs interviewed four researchers who made the news in 2015 and asked what they’d change about science.  I think all are very indicative of current issues within the scientific research enterprise and issues that are frequently discussed on CauseScience. Check out the full article here.

1. Reveal Peer Reviewers (Jin-Soo Kim, Seoul National University in South Korea).  CauseScience discusses Peer Review.
2.  Make Software Accessible (Jean-Baptiste Mouret, French Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automation). CauseScience discusses Open Access.
3. Boost women’s careers (Maria Cristina de Sanctis, Institute for Space Astrophysics and Planetology in Rome). CauseScience discusses Women in Science.
4. Treat scientists as humans (Danielle Edwards, UC-Merced). CauseScience discusses work-life balance.
