We have the perfect opportunity for you!  + +As part of our NWO project [CHECK-NL](https://codecheck.org.uk/nl), **we are looking for researchers from the field of geosciences based at a Dutch knowledge institution or university who would like their papers or projects to be “codechecked” during a live, one-day code-checking workshop on 26 September 2024** at the University of Twente.  A codecheck is a light-touch independent peer review to check that your code and data can generate the computational results in your paper or project (see more details [here](https://codecheck.org.uk/process/)).  + + + +You can participate as a codechecker (i.e., a person reviewing code), or by submitting your own work to be checked (or both if you are up for it!). *Curious to know how it works? Read about our first [workshop in Delft](https://codecheck.org.uk/nl-workshop1/).* + + + +Anyone is welcome to participate at the workshop. Participation is free of cost and includes lunch. We have limited funding (on a first come, first served basis) for reimbursing train tickets for PhD (non-AiO) students. PhD candidates who participate in the workshop can reach out to us about getting credits for participation, provided their supervisors and institutions/departments also agree. + + + +## What do I get if I submit my paper or pre-print?   + +A codechecker will work with you during the session to check whether your code and data can be run by others to generate the same or similar results.   + +The codechecker will work with you to resolve any issues found during the code check, and make your code as reproducible as possible!   + +Upon completion, your paper will receive a codecheck certificate that confirms your results could be reproduced.  This can be shared, for instance with potential journal editors, to enhance the visibility and reproducibility of your work.    + +By participating, you contribute towards making science more open and transparent AND increase the visibility of your own research!   + + +## Sounds good! What should I do?   + +Are you interested in participating in this event, and help contribute to promoting code reproducibility? Send an email to codechecknl@gmail.com **by 2 September 2024** with a *brief description of your paper/project, and links to your code and data*. This could be code related to:   + +- A paper that you have recently published   + +- A preprint that is publicly available   + +- Code and results files that have been or will be deposited in a repository, preferably  GitHub or GitLab   + +In each case, the code and data underlying the paper should be openly available, or you plan to make them available once the paper is published.  + + + +**Selected papers/projects will be notified in early September 2024. All authors are invited to register join the workshop.**   + + + +## What if I want to volunteer to be a codechecker instead?  + + +If you are interested in learning more about the codecheck process and becoming a codechecker, please register on our [eventbrite page](https://www.eventbrite.nl/e/codecheck-workshop-for-the-geosciences-tickets-945474348227?aff=oddtdtcreator) to volunteer to become a codechecker at the workshop on 26th September. The event will be held in person at the University of Twente. + +### Why would I volunteer your time to code check other people's work?  + +- Learn how others ensure reproducibility of their work   + +- Gaining hands-on experience in peer reviewing code + +- Learn to make your own code more reproducible + +- Contributing to more transparent science  + +  + +*Interested but still have questions? Ask us!*  + +Write to us at codechecknl@gmail.com, we are happy to answer any questions!  + +For questions related to the NWO project CHECK-NL, please contact Frank Ostermann (f.o.ostermann@utwente.nl) +
