Healing Science from the Inside Out: Meta-Science as a Vital Path to Public Trust / Studying the Research System: Metaresearch, Incentives, and Research Assessment Reform

An evening of public talks in the lecture series "Fake Science — Isolated Cases or a Systemic Problem?" at the University of Zurich, featuring two talks and a joint discussion, held in English. Organized by the Center for Reproducible Science and Research Synthesis (CRS), the series examines fraudulent science from multiple angles. On this evening Ye Sun (University of Georgia & University of Zurich) speaks on "Healing Science from the Inside Out: Meta-Science as a Vital Path to Public Trust" and "Studying the Research System: Metaresearch, Incentives, and Research Assessment Reform", asking what the research system actually rewards and what metaresearch can tell us about incentives. The series is aimed at students and researchers from all disciplines and a broad public audience.
