Many high-profile papers are based on highly specialized techniques that few have mastered, which make them very difficult to reproduce. Many laboratories have developed their own software to perform data analysis. These are rarely evaluated by reviewers, although they should be since they also constitute a proper result of the study and contribute significantly to the findings. It is conceivable that many studies cannot be reproduced because they are underpowered (the mythical n = 5). But it is surprising to find that many computational studies and modeling papers cannot be reproduced either. After all, they are based on mathematics, and mathematics cannot lie, can … ER -
