Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
The replicability problems across varied scientific disciplines have attracted increasing attention in the last two decades. Selective inference, namely the unadjusted inference on the few promising ones, selected as such, is a major source of the problems. Unfortunately, the problem is ignored in many important and highly visible areas of science, and p-values and significance testing are being blamed. I will describe this attack, and the politics surrounding it, in some detail. After presenting this background, the talk will focus on new hierarchical FDR strategies to address selective inference, and on false coverage-statement rate confidence intervals. I shall demonstrate these in the contexts of genomic research, gene-brain associations, NEJM new guidelines as to secondary outcomes, and the Replicability Project in Psychology.
