As the TIER2 comes to a close, several of its results have been made available on the Horizon Results Platform, a central hub for sharing EU-funded research. As such, it will help increase the visibility of these important outputs and the mission of the project's research, reaching new and wider audiences. The following results are now accessible: Conceptual Framework: Provided to assess the relevance and feasibility of reproduci...

We’re pleased to share that the final TIER2 newsletter is now available, highlighting the project's achievements over its last three months. This edition concludes three years of collaborative research and features key milestones, including the release of our second animated video, our full training course, and details about our project’s final symposium. The newsletter also highlights a new project policy brief on Open Science for Artificial ...

As part of the 2025 Joint General Assembly in London, the coordinators of three Horizon Europe consortia, OSIRIS, TIER2, and iRISE, came together for a collective interview to reflect on their shared achievements, project synergies, and emerging priorities for strengthening reproducibility across European research systems. Collaboration enables the three projects to align protocols, compare methods, exchange knowledge, and jointly address chal...

The Open Science Working Group at AmsterdamUMC has announced the winners of its annual Open Science Awards, recognising projects that promote and utilise the principles of Open Science. This fall, the group opened a call for submissions, and the Reproducibility Promotion Plan for Funders (RPP) was nominated and soon shortlisted among the top eight projects. On 21 November, TIER2 partner Barbara Leitner (VUmc) presented the RPP to the jury. Fou...

As TIER2 comes to a conclusion, we have shared our second animated video highlighting the project’s key outcomes, demonstrating how our work across different research disciplines has addressed the challenges of reproducibility. The video illustrates the complex nature of reproducibility, showing that its meaning and feasibility vary between fields and that practical challenges such as time, workload, and staffing can often hinder efforts to make ...

TIER2 has published a new policy brief titled “Open Science for Artificial Intelligence: Implementing Reproducibility to Promote Trust in AI”. The brief highlights the urgent need for reproducibility to be a central priority in artificial intelligence research. As AI is becoming ever more central to research methods across domains, including highly sensitive areas such as medicine, many studies remain difficult to reproduce due to cultura...

This press release was originally published on EurekAlert! and AlphaGalileo. The EU-funded TIER2 project, ending December 2025, has developed tools, training, and policy recommendations to strengthen reproducible research in Europe. To celebrate its achievements, the project is hosting its final event online in February 2026. Since January 2023, TIER2 has examined how emerging approaches, technologies and research cultures can su...

The Ukrainian Reproducibility Network (UARN), established with TIER2 support, is continuing its work to promote open and reproducible science. Together with the Open4UA project and the Institute for Digitalisation of Education of the NAES of Ukraine, UARN is co-organising a course titled “Peer Review in the Era of Open and Reproducible Science: New Challenges and Opportunities. ” The event is hosted by the University of Lj...

As TIER2 comes to an end, we’re eager to share our research results with you. With our new #TIER2Research campaign, we’ll be highlighting four papers each week, showcasing outcomes from the project. Through this campaign, we’re introducing the main publications of the project and exploring broader themes, including improving reproducibility in the social sciences, approaches to collaboration for reproducible research, open science in the...

A new Reproducibility Network has been launched in Serbia with support from TIER2. The official event took place in a hybrid form on 25 September 2025 at the Science Technology Park Belgrade (Naučno-tehnološki park Beograd). Find out more about the Serbian RN on their website and Zenodo community, as well as on their LinkedIn and Instagram accounts. “We believe this launch marks only the beginning. Together, w...

The TIER2 Reproducibility Hub (ReproHub) has been launched at the Embassy of Good Science, marking a step towards improving trust, integrity, and efficiency in research across disciplines. The ReproHub provides a comprehensive platform dedicated to advancing reproducibility, a key pillar of credible and transparent science. It serves as a central resource that consolidates all project outputs, offering users access to key definitions, stakehol...

The latest edition of the TIER2 newsletter is now available, featuring updates and project highlights from the past six months. This edition announces that the first three Reproducibility Training Modules are now live on the OpenPlato e-learning platform and celebrates the launch of two national Reproducibility Networks in Georgia and Ukraine, supported by the TIER2 Reproducibility Network (RN) Award.
