    This Professional Development Workshop (PDW) is intended for those interested in registered research, either from the author or editor perspective. In the spirit of Creating a Better World Together, by creating better research together, five panelists will represent various approaches to the registered research process, including those who have published registered research articles, those who have edited registered research special issues, and editors who have embraced this process. Each panelist will discuss the requirements for a successful registered research manuscript, which he or she has learned in a career as author, reviewer, or editor. In addition, each panelist will share thoughts regarding the analysis of the process, including any specific changes to one’s past research process, and recommendations for how authors should approach this process in the future. Each panelist will detail necessary action steps, including requirements for reviewers for these journals. After the panelists conclude their remarks, attendees will break into smaller roundtable groups, ordered by topical area and research interest. The session will conclude a debriefing, where each roundtable group will share their experiences and best practices for those choosing registered research. Our goal is to help make the registered research process available and more effective for those in the field by enhancing rigor, relevance, and creating better relationships throughout the publication process. PDW organized by Gretchen Lester (SJSU) and Michelle Hammond (Oakland). Jamie Gloor was a panelist alongside Willian J. Gardner (Texas Tech and LQ AE), Floor Rink (Groningen and AMJ AE), Birgit Schyns (NEOMA and author of pre-registered research at LQ), and Rachel Clapp-Smith (Purdue, Editor for LQ's special issue on pre-registered research)

    That’s a (Science) Riot! Cultivating Research Impact through Stand-up Comedy

    Research impact is girded by a solid foundation of effective Knowledge Exchange -- i.e., a two-way flow between researchers and end-users of ideas, research evidence, experiences, and skills. However, many of the "best" researchers deploy few strategies beyond teaching, websites, and social media; even fewer can confidently capture public engagement and evaluate its impact. This Professional Development Workshop (PDW) will explore the benefits of humor at work and exploit comedy as a tool of connection to build individual scholars' capacities for science communication and research impact. Participants will receive expert media training in writing and performing comedic delivery of research insights, culminating in a live comedy show!
