<p>
Reproducible Research Oxford is a project based at
the <a href="http://www.ox.ac.uk" target="_blank">University of
Oxford</a>. We aim to lay the groundwork for a culture of research
reproducibility at the University, focusing on training in the
effective use of computational tools in research. These tools are
widely used in some disciplines, and they can enable researchers to
easily track the process leading from data to results, so that it is
fully reproducible. However, researchers often lack the opportunities,
incentives and confidence to make best use of these tools.
</p>

<p>
To this end, we have set up a partnership
with <a href="https://software-carpentry.org/"
target="_blank">Software Carpentry</a>
and <a href="http://www.datacarpentry.org/" target="_blank">Data
Carpentry</a>, non-profit volunteer organisations focused on teaching
researchers across disciplines the computing and data skills they need
for effective and reproducible research. We will coordinate and
deliver a series of Carpentry <a href="/events"
target="_blank">workshops</a> open to students and staff across the
University. Additionally, we will train Carpentry instructors based at
Oxford to build local capacity in this area.
