The 8th World Conference on Research Integrity (WCRI) took place between 2-5 June, in Athens, Greece, gathering a diverse group of participants committed to enhancing research integrity across disciplines and career stages. This year's conference theme, "Catalysing the translation of research into trustworthy policy and innovation," brought together universities, research institutes, funders, publishers, and government bodies to discuss critical issues in research integrity.

Several TIER2 partners actively contributed through plenary sessions, presentations, and posters. Joeri Tijdink (Amsterdam VUmc) and Liz Allen (F1000) discussed the futures of reproducibility from different disciplinary contexts, as well as from a publisher’s perspective, while Alexandra Bannach-Brown (Berlin Institute of Health at Charité) presented TIER2’s activities for fostering a funders community in reproducibility.
