At the Solid Science Workshop in Bordeaux (September 6-7, 2018), I gave a workshop about free software to facilitate solid research practices. During this workshop, we collaboratively worked on a list of resources/software/tools that can be used to improve different stages of the research process.
Check out the list, share it with colleagues, or add your own resources to it here: https://bit.ly/opensciencesoftware.

Wednesday May 30, 2018, I successfully defended my PhD thesis, which means that I can now finally call myself Dr. Nuijten!
I thank my promotors Jelte Wicherts and Marcel van Assen for all their advice over the last 5 years, and my committee – Chris Chambers, Eric-Jan Wagenmakers, Rolf Zwaan, and Marjan Bakker – for their interesting (and fun!) questions.
My full thesis “Research on research: A meta-scientific study of problems and solutions in psychological science” can be found here.
I am an Assistant Professor at the Department of Methodology and Statistics at the School of Social and Behavioral Sciences of Tilburg University, the Netherlands.
My research focuses on meta-science, including topics such as replication, publication bias, statistical errors, and questionable research practices. One of my current interests is the idea of looking at details (e.g., statistical reporting errors) to uncover bigger problems (e.g., the overall robustness of a conclusion). I received an NWO Veni grant to further expand this idea. Another area I’m working on is automation in peer review. Can we (responsibly) use automated tools to help spot problems in manuscripts? I received an NWO XS grant to set up this research line.
I am part of the Meta-Research Center at Tilburg University: http://metaresearch.nl.
