Re: Call for Linked Research

Hi,

while I agree with you all, I was thinking: is the lack of reproducibility an issue due to the way results are represented ?
Apart for some fields (e.g.: bioinformatics), materials, samples, experience are probably more relevant and much harder to reproduce.

best,
Andrea
