Our new #preprint "Data Hazards as an ethical toolkit for neuroscience" is out!

Read it on OSF!
https://osf.io/preprints/osf/yn2j9

This is some fantastic work that has been spearheaded by a great PhD student, Susana!
She care a lot about this project and has used her PhD as a case study for applying the proposed toolkit (which will become part of her PhD project!)

Writing this was fun, and it really made us think about #ethics of #data and how we should consider these issues at all stages of a project, from planning, through to after the end of the project.

We would be thrilled to hear what you think about this!
