How Can the Research Community Address Transparency Issues?
The research community can adopt several practices to improve transparency in catalysis:
Open Data Sharing: Researchers should deposit their raw and processed data in publicly accessible repositories, enabling others to validate and build upon their work. Comprehensive Reporting Standards: Adopting and adhering to standardized reporting guidelines, such as the Minimum Information for Publication of Quantitative Real-Time PCR Experiments (MIQE) guidelines in other fields, can enhance the reproducibility of catalytic research. Collaboration and Communication: Encouraging interdisciplinary collaboration and open communication among researchers can foster a culture of transparency and mutual trust.
