Recently, several threats like low reproducibility have been identified, which limit the ability to build cumulative knowledge in psychology and neuroscience (Munafo et al., 2017). In my PhD, in order to improve scientific rigour and research efficiency, I have been in the forefront of embracing open science practices.
