#14: Talking Bias in Research with Emily Sena
Manage episode 303887070 series 2856663
We often think of academic science as a pure pursuit for knowledge. But when you’re building your research on inaccurately reported data in the hope to get your own narrative into a well-respected journal, the water can get muddied. In this episode I’m joined by Emily Sena, is a Senior Lecturer in Preclinical Research at the University of Edinburgh and Editor in chief at the BMJ Open Science journal. We talk about bias in science and what is being done to incentivise the accurate reporting of science, why accessibility to scientific research is so important, and what institutions need to do to tackle diversity and inclusion at the top of the academic ladder.
