The
Academy
The COGITATE Academy is a collection of activities, efforts, musings and more that sum to a meaningful resource for the scientific community. The notion is that this series of outputs from our group can help illuminate what it takes to come together, in the spirit of open and team science, and produce a meaningful and consequential learning experience for those in the group, as well as our peers - and do great science along the way!
CHECK OUT WHAT WE’VE BEEN UP TO
COGITATE JOURNAL CLUB
The COGITATE Journal Club (CJC) is led by Oscar Ferrante and Francis Fallon, along with Liad Mudrik and Michael Pitts. The CJC takes the form of a monthly meeting whereby all members of the consortium are welcome to join the discussion about a particularly relevant and interesting paper.

GROWING UP IN ACADEMIA
What is it to be a scientist? How does one become a scientist? Growing Up in Academia is a conversation series with academics at different levels of their career focusing on the sometimes short, sometimes long and winding roads behind the “official CV”.
BLOG POSTS
An ongoing collection of blogs written by members of the consortium that aim to provide insights into the COGITATE project, the consortium, the science and much more!
Part unconference conference. Part hackathon. Part academy.
A 3-part series of tutorials curated for the COGITATE Consortium by Praveen Sripad, focused on code hygiene and reproducibility. The goal is to equip researchers with the necessary skills and know-how to write and share FAIR code.
Link to the resources for each tutorial of the series below:
To motive researchers towards good coding practices for reproducible science.
An overview of approaches to make scientific code clean and reproducible.
How to use github for collaboration.
Workflows - using forks, branches and pull requests.
Code reviews.
Why test code?
Unit testing
