We also got hands-on with a mini #hackathon, brainstorming ways to boost our involvement as Malaysians in big-team science. I hope you found the session informative & that you'll be inspired to start adopting some open science practices + being a part of BTS projects in the future! 💡 3/3

Quick rundown of what was covered: 1️⃣ Replication crisis in psychological research 🔬 2️⃣ The ABCs of open science: data, methodology, and access (take baby steps and enjoy the "buffet"!) 3️⃣ The power of big-team science and why it can be a game-changer for us in the Global South 2/3

Well done @alelazic.bsky.social@almajeftic.bsky.social for the successful hackathon! Those survey results are interesting & I wonder it would be a common experience for researchers in Asia. It's a long journey to embrace OS + BTS practices but raising awareness about them is still a great start!

3⃣ Never forget about your own strengths! Remember that your work and skills can compliment the lab/team/collaboration but you can also benefit by learning from others' expertise - this should be a key reason for joining them! (🧵 4/4) 4/4

2⃣ Others recommended that instead of focusing about one's shortcoming, let them know ur intellectual curiosity & eagerness for challenges are the main drivers behind ur motivation to challenge urself to learn a new methodology. Show that u want to develop urself! (🧵3/4) 3/4

1⃣ There is a common mistake that many of us tend to do - diving into a new methodology before grasping its underlying philosophy. Sadly there are no shortcuts - it's worth investing time to learn the basics, seek guidance from experts, and of course - just do it. (🧵 2/4) 2/4
