RIOT Science Club
Piloted in June 2018 and established in February 2019 by Dr Samuel Westwood, The RIOTS Club initiative is entirely early-career researcher-led and is now franchised to several universities. To learn more about the RIOTS Club, and the wonderful team behind its success, visit our website www.riotscience.co.uk. If you would live to set up your own RIOTS Club, please contact [email protected]
All talk slides are stored on our Open Science Framework Page https://osf.io/8y7h2/.
You can also subscribe to our mailing list by emailing [email protected]. If you join, you will receive weekly reminders of upcoming talks and workshops, any local events, and vacancies for positions in open and reproducible research.
You can also find us on Twitter @riotscienceclub.
If you would like to give a talk or workshop for The RIOTS Club, please email: [email protected]
