Test-Enhanced Learning and Incentives in Biology Education [PDF]

CBE—Life Sciences Education, 2020
This study examined the testing effect in a postsecondary biology course with low- and high-incentive treatments and measured student learning. Although exposure to exams predicted better learning, incentive level did not moderate this effect, an outcome that contradicted recent laboratory findings that higher incentives decreased the testing effect.

A novel independence test for somatic alterations in cancer shows that biology drives mutual exclusivity but chance explains most co-occurrence

bioRxiv, 2016
In cancer, mutually exclusive or co-occurring somatic alterations across genes can suggest functional interactions. Existing tests for such patterns make the unrealistic assumption of identical gene alteration probabilities across tumors.

Testing the reproducibility and robustness of the cancer biology literature by robot

Journal of The Royal Society Interface, 2022
Scientific results should not just be ‘repeatable’ (replicable in the same laboratory under identical conditions), but also ‘reproducible’ (replicable in other laboratories under similar conditions). Results should also, if possible, be ‘robust’ (replicable under a wide range of conditions).
