Sinopse

Dan and James chat with Fiona Fidler (University of Melbourne), who is leading the repliCATS project (https://replicats.research.unimelb.edu.au/), which aims to develop accurate techniques to elicit estimates of the replicability of research. This is also the first time they interview a guest live! Here's what they discuss... * The story behind repliCATS * Australia's best export, Tim Tams (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Tam) * The SCORE project (https://www.wired.com/story/darpa-wants-to-solve-sciences-replication-crisis-with-robots/) organised by DARPA * Can anyone use the repliCATS methodology? * Dan, Fiona, and James talk about did their honours theses (this is roughly the Australian equivalent of a Masters) * What would a successful repliCATS project look like? * What sort of heuristics do people use to assess replicability? * The AIMOS conference (https://www.aimos2019conference.com/) * The role of replicability in public policy * This is Bob Katter (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1i739SyCu9I) * S
