Latest events
The Library offers workshops and events designed to help you develop essential research skills. Whether you're a student, a researcher, or faculty our sessions provide opportunities to explore advanced research techniques, critically evaluate information sources, learn about open research and engaging with AI for research.
Getting started with preregistration and registered reports
Preregistering your research or publishing a Registered Report enhances the transparency and credibility of the research process.
This introductory workshop will clarify the differences between preregistration and Registered Reports, provide practical advice on using preregistration tools and explore effective implementation strategies. In addition, it provides a chance to meet with others who share the same commitment to fostering open research practices.
By the end of the workshop, you will be able to:
- explain the differences between preregistration and Registered Reports and describe their benefits and limitations;
- find preregistration templates;
- identify journals that accept Registered Reports;
- locate sources of support and guidance
