Transparency, reproducibility and inclusivity: New article types for open science

What the event covered

The core principles of open science or open research are about transparency, reproducibility and inclusivity. This webinar looked at how Taylor & Francis journals are responding to these themes by diversifying the article types they offer to their communities.

Whether you want to signpost the start of a new research project by publishing a study protocol, share a new methodological innovation, data, software or a novel protocol, there are increasingly new options available to authors to showcase their skills and expertise. Learn more about these article types from this recording with members of Taylor & Francis’s open science team.
