Three major projects set out to test whether published findings in the social and behavioral sciences can be reproduced. What they found says less about individual researchers than about the systems they work in.

Research integrity and research security are converging. Leslie McIntosh, Vice President of Research Integrity and Security at Digital Science, explains what that means for paper mills, authorship for sale, and the future of data sharing.

REACH Comics uses humor to illustrate the dilemmas the research community faces.

Short updates on the tools, standards, and datasets shaping research integrity.
