Journal of Trial and Error

The Center of Trial and Error is a virtual platform and sandbox for disruptive initiatives that aim to bring about institutional change. At the heart of their operation is the Journal of Trial & Error, their flagship publication that bridges the gap between what researchers do and what they can report. This journal seeks to foster discussions and question the value of different types of knowledge, advocate for practices that benefit both researchers and the public, and promote policies that prioritize openness, transparency, and compassion over profit.

The Center of Trial and Error is on a mission to drive institutional change by empowering early career researchers, developing non-profit platforms for academic activities, and encouraging independent reflection on academic culture, systemic structures, research, and academic education. They offer a range of services through their five branches, including publishing, training, research, and software development. With a team of dedicated individuals, the Center is committed to advancing their vision of creating a more transparent, responsible, honest, and reflexive way of doing scholarship
