The actual implementation of R&R practices requires the buy-in of researchers and institutions. SPORR is examining the motivations behind R&R, such as acknowledgement from funding agencies, evidence for career promotion, and other rewards. Understanding how researchers are incentivized aids in the development of tools and resources to make R&R and efficient and beneficial practice in everyday research, resulting in true culture change for researchers and universities. 

We are currently working on:

• Promoting that R&R activites are highilghted in CVs of Researchers
• Awarding Stanford Medicine researchers and staff for their R&R acomplisments
• Deveoping a network of R&R representatives
•
