Software, such as computational code, scripts, models, notebooks and libraries, is fundamental to research and yet is often overlooked. However, the value of software could be recognised if it were cited in the same way that other sources of information, such as articles and books, are cited. So, a set of community-driven guidelines serve as a useful starting point to support proper attribution and credit of software. In this blog, we discuss the task force responsible for producing this set of recommendations and how it can be used and help the scholarly publishing community.
Last year, the Health Research Board (HRB) joined the global fight against COVID-19. In cooperation with the Irish Research Council (IRC) and Science Foundation Ireland (SFI), HRB launched a rapid response mechanism to fund research that would provide evidence for the national and global efforts to tackle the virus outbreak. The funding call covered medical countermeasures, health service readiness, and social and policy countermeasures to COVID-19.
In this blog post, Charlie Vickers, Senior Editorial Assistant, explains why Study Protocols are important – not only for science in general, but as part of the F1000Research model too.
In this blog, Marita Hennessy, Rebecca Dennehy & Rachel Rice from the Pregnancy Loss Research Group at Cork University Maternity Hospital (CUMH)/University College Cork, discuss how the RE:CURRENT (Recurrent miscarriage: Evaluating current services) study is evaluating recurrent miscarriage services in Ireland, to inform efforts to standardise and optimise these services.
