Ten (not so) simple rules for clinical trial data-sharing

The authors propose 10 (not so) simple rules for researchers wishing to share data, aligned on the clinical trial lifecycle.

The Challenger Expedition - 1872

Report of a BBC Radio episode about the 1872 four-year-long Challenger expedition to investigate the oceans of the earth.

Defining the roles of research software

Workshop report that tries to define the various roles of research software.
