Roberta will give an invited talk at the Metascience Conference 2019, hosted at Stanford University, in Palo Alto. 

This is the topic of the conference:

During this decade, we have witnessed the emergence of a new discipline called metascience, metaresearch, or the science of science. Most exciting is the fact that this is emerging as a truly interdisciplinary enterprise with contributors from every domain of research. This symposium serves as a formative meeting for metascience as a discipline. The meeting will bring together leading scholars that are investigating questions related to themes such as:

• How do scientists generate ideas?
• How are our statistics, methods, and measurement practices affecting our capacity to identify robust findings?
• Does the distinction between exploratory and confirmatory research matter?
• What is replication and its impact and its value?
• How do scientists interpret and treat evidence?
• What are the cultures and norms of science?
