Conclusion
Not Addressed
Para 32
Though the specific problems faced differ, all research disciplines are affected by the systemic issues that limit reproducibility. The established view that issues are concentrated in the social and medical sciences is outdated and tackling reproducibility challenges should be a priority in every research field, regardless of discipline and methodology.
Government Response Summary
The government's response highlights the variability in reproducibility requirements and practices across different research fields funded by UKRI, without directly addressing the committee's call for tackling reproducibility to be a priority in every field.
