Why Reproducible Research Matters

Reproducible research is essential to advancing innovation and ensuring that scientific discoveries reliably contribute to knowledge and progress. For example, it has been estimated that over $28 billion is wasted annually in biomedical research due to results that cannot be replicated, often leading entire fields astray. These case studies showcase the challenges and solutions being developed to address issues like these, highlighting the vital role UKRN plays in promoting rigorous, reproducible research practices that save resources, improve outcomes, and build trust in science.
