-----------------------------------------------------
**Description**
The Longwood Medical Area (LMA) Research Data Management Working Group (RDMWG) offers regular online seminars for various research data management (RDM) topics. This seminar on "Do Right by Your Data: Defeating Bias(es) in the Multiverse of Research" was offered on August 24, 2022.
This panel discussion addresses:
- Diverse sources of bias, and how current experimental design, data management, and statistical practices attenuate their potential to confound research
- Ethical considerations when researchers make choices about the acquisition, use, analysis, and interpretation of data
- How different data management and data sharing practices can support or undermine the quality of research
We suggest reading "[The 7 deadly sins of research][1]."
