What is a ReproHack

A one day, hands-on Reproducibility Hackathon

We are all excited by the progress made by many authors to make their papers reproducible by publishing associated code and data.

We know how challenging it can be so we want to showcase the value of the practice, both for original authors and as a learning experience for those who attempt to reproduce the work.

Event format:

During a ReproHack, participants attempt to reproduce published research of their choice from a list of proposed papers with publicly available associated code and data.

Participants get to work with other people’s material in a low pressure environment and record their experiences on a number of key aspects, including reproducibility, transparency and reusability of materials. At the end of the day we regroup, share our experiences and give feedback to the authors.

It’s imperative to note that ReproHacks are by no means an attempt to criticise or discredit work. We see reproduction as beneficial scientific activity in itself, with useful outcomes for authors and valuable learning experiences for the participants and the research community as a whole.

Run a ReproHack!

Please get in touch if you would like to run a ReproHack. We are working to make materials more reusable and easier to reproduce and also on developing guidance on organising and running an event so that in future folks will be able to run everything independently. There are currently reusable materials and instructions for organisers. However, there are plans to streamline the materials & workflow. At this stage, we also really appreciate contact with organisers in order to both help and to learn from their experiences.

Hack the ReproHack!

There are a number of topics we are working on to improve the events and make them reproducible and scalable. Details on the main development directions can be found in the on the

See [Roadmap]() for more details on milestones
