Really excited that the journal Animal Behavior & Cognition now accepts #preregistrations for peer review! Purpose = to publish all research (not only positive results), prevent HARKing, & promote good science rather than sexy stories https://t.co/uE3BT6rpWr
My guiding #dataviz principles:
1. Be clear on intent
2. The right graph creates an "aha" moment
3. Don't overcomplicate
4. Get rid of the non-essential
5. Make it clear where to look
6. Words make a graph accessible
7. Audience trumps all else

Finally using what I learned at @swcarpentry@datacarpentry workshop: Used R markdown to share analysis results with collaborators for the first time. THIS IS SO MUCH LESS PAINFUL than copy/pasting SPSS syntax & output into a Word doc with the writeup.
@drchrisyoung1 @SemplePrimate @DaniRabaiotti Another macape. Crested macaques aka black ape. Not much tail either but superficially resembling gorillas to some degree imho.
Our world renowned MRes in Primate Biology Behaviour & Conservation @RoehamptonUni is now open for applications for 2018-19. Course lasts one year & fees are very competitive. Contact me if interested, or if you wish to be put in touch with a former student.
RTs much appreciated!
