Media coverage: eLife, the Center for Open Science, and Science Exchange partner to assess the reproducibility of cancer biology research

First announced in October 2013 with $1.3 million in funding from the Laura and John Arnold Foundation, The Reproducibility Project: Cancer Biology (RP:CB) aims to replicate key experimental findings in 50 high-profile cancer biology papers published between 2010 and 2012. The project is a partnership between the Center for Open Science, Science Exchange, and eLife.

Examples of the media coverage recived by this initiative are shown below;

• 2014’s Big Advances in Science (The Scientist)
• Parasite test shows where validation studies can go wrong (Nature)
• The Rules of Replication (The Scientist)
