Conference Workshop – An introduction to Forensic Metascience

Sunday 16 November 2025, 12:00pm – 4:00pm

It is one thing to read about errors in scientific literature, and another to find errors yourself. This is a seminar to teach you to do that.

Over 4 hours, we will cover the past ten years of techniques in forensic metascience, including those yet unpublished, and how to apply those techniques in your own work. 

Everything will be conducted in R.

I strongly encourage you to bring:

  1. an internet capable laptop running R Studio and Microsoft Excel.
  2. any papers you wish to analyse, especially bad ones.
