Core Rigor and Reproducibility (CoRRe)

The mission of the ABRF Committee on Core Rigor and Reproducibility (CCoRRe) is to enable rigorous and reproducible research through support of shared scientific resources in advancing technology, education and communication. Core facilities support a significant portion of the research conducted at biomolecular research institutions, thus playing a critical role in achieving efficient use of research funds and broadening access to advanced skills, expertise and technologies. Shared scientific research resources generate the majority of research data at many institutions, so their role in maintaining necessary expertise and generating high quality data is considerable. CCoRRe efforts are focused on building educational resources, sharing critical best practice guidelines, and providing important tools to the core community that will impact rigor, reproducibility and transparency across the range of science and technology.
