SORTEE two-year anniversary: our members’ voices

Between June and September 2021, we started the #SORTEEvoices blog series by asking inaugural members to choose a few questions to answer from a list of 30 options (15 questions about open science, reproducibility, and transparency; 15 miscellaneous questions)1. Responses from sixty-four inaugural members were posted on our blog every week until October 2022. To celebrate SORTEE’s 2-year anniversary in December 2022, we’d like to look back and summarise our members' voices.
