rOpenSci Announces $678K Award from the Sloan Foundation to Expand Software Peer Review - rOpenSci - open tools for open science

Summary

The $678K grant, awarded through the Foundation’s Data & Computational Research program, will be used to expand our efforts in software peer review. We will also be building more tools to test and measure code quality, flag areas for reviewers and authors to focus on. Our project has received five previous awards from the foundation, including the initial grant that led to the formation of rOpenSci as an organization. We are grateful to Sloan for their ongoing support, especially to the Program Director Josh Greenberg for championing our work, the other officers and reviewers who provided feedback on our proposal. We’d also like to thank those who provided advice and support, including Ben Bolker, Max Kuhn, Andrew Gelman, Jonah S Gabry, and Leah Wasser.
