Making Science More Reliable
Science
is one of humanity’s most important endeavors. It creates life saving
drugs, informs the policies that govern how we live, and gives us the
technology in our hands. It is awesome and that is a fact.
Science
is built on facts. Yet, only six out of 53 (11%) major cancer studies
could pass independent validation when checked by industry, while out of
100 psychology studies less than half could be reproduced.
Today, we are introducing scite to make it easier to tell what is fact and what is not.
scite
is a platform that allows anyone to see if a scientific report has been
supported or contradicted by subsequent work. We do this by using deep
learning and a network of experts to analyze hundreds of millions of
citation statements, classifying them as supporting, contradicting, or
just mentioning, and presenting the results in an easy to understand
interface. Thus, anyone can check if a scientific paper has been
supported or contradicted with just a few clicks.
We hope that scite
will help researchers, funders, and the public to evaluate scientific
research better, thus making it more reliable so that science can
continue to make our lives better.
We’re
excited to open the platform for beta testing today and invite you to
join a community dedicated to making science more reliable.
