Survey on Computational Sciences - sent on behalf of Carole Goble (ELIXIR-UK)

Sent on behalf of Prof Carole Goble:
As part of a PhD, we are conducting a survey that aims to gather insights into the documenting and reporting practices for research studies or experiments in computational science disciplines.
Reporting practices refer to how researchers document and report the details of their research studies or experiments. Computational sciences involve using computational methods to solve scientific problems, with study methods typically being partially or entirely computational (e.g. bioinformatics, chemistry, astronomy, engineering, finance).
What will your participation do?
- Help us identify the common documenting and reporting practices faced by researchers.
- Contribute to the development of a framework that enhances reproducibility in computational science research.
- Reflect on your consideration of additional reporting practices.
What is this survey about?
The survey will take approximately 20-30 minutes to complete. It includes questions about your practices, experiences, and opinions on documenting/reporting research studies within your discipline.
Participation is entirely voluntary and anonymous, and you can withdraw at any time without consequence. Participant information will be kept confidential and only accessed by the research team at the University of Manchester. The remaining survey responses will be anonymised and manually sanitised for privacy concerns before research analysis and may be published in a repository as part of open research practices.
