Robust research: A practical guide by Dr Verena Heise

About the speaker

Dr Verena Heise is based at the University of Oxford and uses advanced neuroimaging techniques, mainly magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), to investigate how genetics and lifestyle measures affect human brain structure and function. She is particularly interested in promoting Open and Reproducible Research and improving research methods to make the results of scientific research more robust. She is involved in several working groups to promote robust research: Reproducible Research Oxford, which is the local node of the UK Reproducibility Network, the Open Neuroimaging working group at the Wellcome Centre for Integrative Neuroimaging and the advisory board for Credibility in Neuroscience at the British Neuroscience Association.
