    195: Living meta-analysis Jan 14, 2026
    Show notes

    We discuss how living meta‑analyses—meta‑analyses that are continuously updated as new studies appear—can cut research waste and keep evidence current. We also chat about how using synthetic research participants is a terrible idea.

    • The synthetic panel service
    • The paper describing a living meta-analysis platform for oxytocin research

    194: Author verification Nov 10, 2025
    Show notes

    We discuss whether preprint servers and journals should require author identity verification for submitting manuscripts. This would probably speed up the submission process, but is this worth the potential downsides? We also discuss the similarities and differences between academia and professional sports and a weird case of author identity theft.
