Abstract
The science reform movement has much potential to change how we conduct research and what our research practice produces. In the past decade, it has been gathering momentum as more people join the effort to improve scientific practice, inference, and dissemination. However, so much emphasis is placed on tools and methodology, which raises the question of what work is being done (or should be done) to improve diversity and inclusion in the movement? Does the science reform movement also seek to change systemic issues of sexism and racism, or are these shortcomings translated into the movement from the traditional scientific community that the movement emerges from without critical engagement from reformers? This talk aims to raise some important points for reform activists to consider, surrounding whose voices are heard in the reform movement. Who is allowed a place at the table, and ultimately, who is heard?
