Dear All, it is a pleasure to announce the *Workshop “Replicability crisis in science?”University of Padua, Italy, 19 September 2023* Speakers: Prof. Giovanni Parmigiani, Department of Data Science, Dana Farber Cancer Institute, Harvard University, USA (https://scholar.harvard.edu/parmigiani) Prof. Branden Fitelson, Department of Philosophy and Religion, Northeastern University, USA (https://cssh.northeastern.edu/faculty/branden-fitelson/) Prof. Gianmarco Altoè, Department of Developmental Psychology and Socialisation, University of Padua ( https://www.dpss.unipd.it/en/gianmarco-altoe) Prof. Alessandra Salvan, Department of Statistical Sciences, University of Padua (https://homes.stat.unipd.it/alessandrasalvan/en/home-2/) Prof. Marzia Soavi, Department of Philosophy, Sociology, Education and Applied Psychology, University of Padua ( https://www.unipd.it/en/contatti/rubrica?detail=Y&ruolo=1&checkout=cerca&pe… ) Workshop content: When evaluating the reliability of scientific findings and predictions, a major concern is about their replicability, that is their consistency across different studies aimed at answering the same question. A ‘replicability crisis’ has been claimed in the last decades, denouncing that a large part of published research findings, especially in applied sciences, such as psychology or medicine failed to be confirmed by subsequent studies. Difficulties in moving from empirical evidence and data analysis to a scientific result push towards the need to clarify various aspects, such as rigorous definitions, the possible tools for understanding and communicating the uncertainty inherent in most scientific conclusions, the definition of non-questionable research practices. Workshop Website: https://replicabilityday.stat.unipd.it Registration: Registration for the workshop is now open on Eventbrite <https://www.eventbrite.it/e/biglietti-replicability-crisis-in-science-68647…> . Organizers: Department of Statistical Sciences, University of Padova, Italy: Alessandra Salvan and Bruno Scarpa Department of Philosophy, Sociology, Education and Applied Psychology, University of Padova, Italy: Massimiliano Carrara and Fabio Grigenti Further details can be found at https://replicabilityday.stat.unipd.it or contact Bruno Scarpa (scarpa(a)stat.unipd.it) Info: replicability(a)stat.unipd.it The workshop has been organised together with the twin event of the Summer school on “Replicability crisis in science?” <https://replicability.stat.unipd.it/>.
