Research communication in the digital age retains many of the disadvantages of the print era. It is slow and incomplete, with much of the data and other components missing or locked in the supplemental files of journal articles. Ideally research communication would be both rapid and complete, with all aspects of the work included, and shared publicly in machine-readable and AI-actionable formats. Research stacks – which we mean to encompass multiple concepts from automated workflows to notebooks and records of versions – are gaining traction as a way to collect all aspects of a scientific research project such as: development, planning, methods, data collection and execution, analysis, and reporting of results. One advantage is facilitation of seamless collaboration and sharing of critical aspects of the research. Another is that contributions to the research such as data sets or statistical analysis can be credited to the researchers most responsible for those products prior to final publication, all of which promotes research integrity and reproducibility. This session will explore how to support adoption of research stacks and appropriately integrate consideration of credit and accountability throughout the development of the research.
