Replication Research: An Open Journal for the Repeated Testing of Scientific Findings

Together with FORRT, MüCOS is developing an interdisciplinary Diamond Open Access journal for replications and reproductions, as well as an interdisciplinary exchange on the necessary methods. The project is funded by the University of Münster through a Topical Program. To concretize the journal project, MüCOS is organizing the Replication Research Symposium from 14.5. - 16.5.2025.

Road to Replication Research

Join us for open online discussions on various topics surrounding the formation of the interdisciplinary and open journal Replication Research.

Among the topics are:

  • How can peer review be designed openly in order to strengthen the responsibility of reviewers without jeopardizing the fairness achieved through anonymity?

  • How can the computational reproducibility of findings to be published be checked efficiently?

  • What are the roles and tasks of an editorial team and how should it be composed?

  • How can a Diamond Open Access journal be financed in the long term?

  • What degree of openness can an interdisciplinary journal strive for without making submissions difficult for individual disciplines?
