Blogs

Between June and September 2021, we started the #SORTEEvoices blog series by asking inaugural members to choose a few questions to answer from a list of 30 options (15 questions about open science, reproducibility, and transparency; 15 miscellaneous questions)1. Responses from sixty-four inaugural members were posted on our blog every week until October 2022. To celebrate SORTEE’s 2-year anniversary in December 2022, we’d like to look back and summarise our members' voices.

[SORTEE member voices is a weekly Q&A with a different SORTEE member] Name: Alfredo Sánchez-Tójar. Date: 06 September 2021. Position: Principal Investigator. Research and/or work interests: I’m an evolutionary ecologist with a soft spot for birds and a great interest in evidence synthesis, meta-research and open science. How did you become interested in open research? I became interested in open research during my PhD and mostly as the result of multiple failed replication attempts of a textbook example in behavioural ecology, the badge of status or signalling status hypothesis in house sparrows.

[SORTEE member voices is a weekly Q&A with a different SORTEE member] Name: Owen Petchey. Date: 19 July 2021. Research and/or work interests: Ecological responses to environmental change. How did you become interested in open research? Some years ago I was particularly interested in a published research report that included the data. I wanted to know more about how the quantitative analyses were done. So I downloaded the data, and set about reproducing the analyses.

[SORTEE member voices is a weekly Q&A with a different SORTEE member] Name: David Wilkinson. Date: 18 July 2021. Position: Postdoctoral Research Fellow. Research and/or work interests: Joint species distribution modelling; occupancy modelling; computational reproducibility; version control; code/data sharing practices. How did you become interested in open research? It wasn’t really the “open research” concept directly that first interested me, but as a primarily methods-based quantitative ecologist it was code and data sharing that made my PhD research possible, and from there I got into other practices.
