Rebecca Williams - Selfish Reasons for Open Science

Rebecca Williams - Selfish Reasons for Open Science

Rebecca Williams, narrates her blog written for the Dementia Researcher website.

Rebecca's blog explores the practical, self-serving benefits of Open Science, beyond its noble ideals. She highlights how practices like preregistration can streamline research, making analysis faster and writing less labor-intensive. Additionally, Open Science fosters transparency and accountability, making it easier to publish null results and receive valuable feedback on data and code. By embracing these methods, researchers can enhance the efficiency and integrity of their work, all while contributing to a more open and honest scientific community.

Rebecca Williams is PhD student at the University of Cambridge. Though originally from ‘up North’ in a small town called Leigh, she did her undergraduate and masters at the University of Oxford before defecting to Cambridge for her doctorate researching Frontotemporal dementia and Apathy. She now spends her days collecting data from wonderful volunteers, and coding. Outside work, she plays board games, and is very crafty. @beccasue99
