Dublin Replication Games at UCD and the EEA-ESEM 2026

16. August 2026
Dublin (Ireland)
Organised by: Institute for Replication (I4R), UCD School of Economics

Replication Games are one-day hackathons where researchers collaborate to reproduce and verify the results of published studies to assess their reliability. They are typically open to PhD students, faculty, and researchers with a PhD, who work in teams to run the codes, detect coding errors, and reanalyze data or add new data. These events provide a hands-on, engaging way to contribute to improving research transparency, reproducibility, and scientific credibility.
