Description

TIER2 is a three-year international project jointly funded by the European Union (Horizon Europe) and UKRI. The project systematically investigates reproducibility across different research contexts, examining epistemological, social, and technical factors. To address these challenges, TIER2 develops and tests new tools and interventions through eight pilot activities. The project aims to bridge knowledge gaps, implement innovative solutions for managing digital objects across their full lifecycle, from data collection and research processes through to publication and preservation. The project also works to foster research communities, and influence policy to enhance reproducibility and research quality. Through co-creation methods, TIER2 actively collaborates with researchers, funders, and publishers to ensure practical and impactful outcomes.

This briefing outlines TIER2's eight pilots' contributions to the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) and demonstrates how the tools, methodologies, and findings align with EOSC's mission to enhance open and reproducible science across Europe.
