In this article and in the full video interview, we’re discussing an interesting new initiative that’s been making waves in the research community: ERROR. Inspired by bug bounty programs in the tech industry, ERROR offers financial rewards to those who identify and report errors in academic research. ERROR has the potential to revolutionise how we approach, among other things, research integrity and open research by incentivising the thorough scrutiny of published research information and enhancing transparency. Suze sat down with two other members of the TL;DR team, Leslie and Mark, to shed light on how ERROR can bolster trust and credibility in scientific findings, and explore how this initiative aligns with the principles of open research and how all these things can drive a culture of collaboration and accountability. They also discussed the impact that ERROR could have on the research community and beyond.
