Two articles on reproducibility of data

Public access to data will lead to reproducible results – or will they?

A January 2014 article “Policy: NIH plans to enhance reproducibility” speaks to the self-correcting nature of biomedical data. The Scholary Kitchen, a blog site on scholarly communication, posits in “Reproducible Research: A Cautionary Tale” that some data lends itself to reuse and verification; while cell data and procedures are not quite as easy to reproduce.
