Happy International Day of Failure!
Today we invite researchers to celebrate the messy side of science:
What failed?
What did you learn from it?
And what might someone else learn if you shared it?
Here’s to making room in science for trial, error, and everything in between!
Throwback to our newest editor Florencia Abinzano at the Dutch Osteoarthritis Day.

It’s time for the annual Trial & Error Award! We are still accepting submissions until August 31st.
The Trial & Error Award celebrates and offers recognition to those who rethink how science and academia view failure.
We hope to receive your submission: trialanderror.org/awards-202…
The Journal of Trial and Error will be at Betweter Festival on Friday, September 25!
Come find Muriel Strange representing the Journal of Trial and Error and colleagues from De Nieuwe Utrechtse School at our booth: “Mission Impossible.”
We hope to see you at TivoliVredenburg!
Scientific papers don't just present evidence. They also make an argument about what that evidence means and why we should believe it.
In this new article, the authors explore how persuasion operates in scientific writing.

What does it mean when another researcher tries to reproduce your computational results and gets different numbers?

For our city tour on trial and error, we are looking for stories about things at, around, or originating from Utrecht Science Park that did not go as planned.
Do you have such a story, or do you know someone who does? Please let us know via [email protected].
As a part of our ongoing Grant Reuse and Abandoned Ideas Library project funded under EOSC GRAVITY, the research team at the Journal of Trial and Error has been working diligently on the recent project plan. We are excited to move forward and share the approval of our plan.
It’s that special time of the year again! Submissions for the 3rd Annual Trial & Error Award are now open until August 31st.
We hope you can contribute to the future of science and take the initiative to include your failure here: trialanderror.org/awards-202….
What does it cost science when negative results go unpublished? Our Editor-in-Chief Dr. Sarahanne Field joins the Lab Coats & Life Podcast to dig into that question. labcoatsandlifepodcast.com/s…

Met trots presenteren het Journal of Trial & Error, Stefan Gaillard en Thomas Camminga, de aftermovie van de Failure88.
De opdrachten leverden veel creatieve uitingen en komische situaties op, die we hebben verwerkt in deze geanonimiseerde aftermovie: lnkd.in/ekFXREeT.
A termite problem at a researcher's mother's house in Florida accidentally led cell biologist Sidney L. Tamm to three major discoveries about how cells work. Sometimes science starts in the most unexpected places. Read the article here: journal.trialanderror.org/pu…
An inspiring evening at the Failure88 where we had a chance to celebrate and talk about failure, learning, and performance pressure in healthcare and research.
Congratulations to all winners and participants!
New in the Cultures of Trial and Error series:
“How nanomedicine conjured billions from thin air"
How did the EPR Effect organise billions in funding despite weak evidence - and why did market collapse succeed where scientific self-correction struggled?
