Making the UK a science 'super-power' calls for streamlining the research system, not just £££s. Three recent reports set out how, but full implementation is vital: tinyurl.com/ka5x3yp4 @ukrepro @CebmOxford @JessButler284 @chrisdc77 @bengoldacre @senseaboutsci @consiliumsci

DELIGHTED to see the BMJ @bmj_latest saying today that they will require papers to share their code. bmj.com/content/382/bmj.p160… HUGE milestone for reproducibility, quality, and efficiency. Here's our BMJ editorial on why code sharing matters, from 2019: bmj.com/content/367/bmj.l636…

A perfect illustration of why clinical trial registration needs an upgrade to a full #RegisteredReports model. @RegReports There are some logistical challenges, but they are solvable. The alternative is this👇 cc @eturnermd1
19% of 755 phase 3 cancer trials had changes to the primary end points in the paper compared to the registration. 70% of those were not disclosed in the paper. Changes were associated with likelihood of a positive outcome (OR=1.86). jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
