REPLICATION STORIES

See replication in action

Independent replications, told as readable stories. Each is composed from a signed, verifiable chain of nanopublications, so every claim traces back to its data, method, and author.

Marine heatwaves are getting longer and more frequent

An independent, fully open-source replication of Oliver et al. (2018), rebuilt from a different satellite record and a different detector: the rising trend in marine-heatwave days holds, and survives ENSO removal.

  • Marine-heatwave trend: confirms
  • Independent data: ESA CCI satellite SST
  • Anne Fouilloux, 2026

Sentinel-2 water quality in the Westerschelde

An independent, fully open-source replication of a Sado estuary water-quality study, run in a more turbid estuary: the parameter-dependent accuracy of the original finding holds.

  • Turbidity retrieval: confirms
  • Chlorophyll-a retrieval: qualifies
  • Anne Fouilloux, 2026

RESEARCH IS NEVER FINISHED

Evidence that keeps up with the research

New replications can confirm, qualify or refute a claim at any time. A real example, from the bumble bee study of Soroye et al. (2020).

Research is never finished: a real example A real example. Research question: does extreme heat drive bumble bee declines? Claim, from Soroye et al. 2020 in Science: heat raises local extinction. Replications arrive over time and each tests the claim: in April 2026 a replication on Iberian bumble bees with independent data confirms it; in May 2026 an extension to future projections confirms it; also in May 2026 a sensitivity test qualifies it, because projected rankings depend on the grid resolution. Next, the claim is open to another region or method. The state of the evidence today is validated, with one qualification, and every step is signed, dated and traceable back to the question.

Research is never finished: new replications can confirm, qualify or refute a claim, and every step stays linked to the question it started from.
WHAT IS A NANOPUBLICATION?

The smallest citable unit of science

A nanopublication is one clear statement (a claim, a dataset, a replication verdict) signed with its author's ORCID, with its source and a permanent identifier. People and AI can find it, check it and cite it. No more invisible work buried in PDFs.

A scientific claim (AIDA sentence) — one of many nanopublication types you can create

FOR ORGANIZATIONS & INDUSTRY

Make your research investment count

Universities meet funder mandates and turn research into real-world impact. Companies cut R&D time with validated findings and on-demand replications.

Universities & RSEs publish structured work
Science Live
Industry & R&D access & commission replications

For Universities & Research Institutes

Meet funder mandates. Turn research into impact.

Funders demand FAIR data and measurable impact. But too much research stays locked in PDFs that industry and society never see. Science Live makes your researchers' contributions structured, discoverable, and ready to be used by the people who need them.

FAIR compliance, automatic

Horizon Europe, NIH, NSF, and most national funders now mandate FAIR data plans. Every nanopublication is FAIR by design — demonstrate compliance without extra documentation.

From research to impact

Make findings discoverable by industry, policymakers, and other researchers. Build the impact case studies funders increasingly require — backed by real, traceable contributions.

Research output reporting

Track structured contributions across departments — datasets, methods, replications, claims. Generate reports for REF, accreditation, and internal evaluations in minutes, not months.

Visibility for RSEs and research engineers

Make hard-to-justify staff contributions measurable and discoverable. Show funders and industry what your research engineering team actually delivers.

Live data — updated from the nanopub network

For Industry & R&D Teams

Cut R&D validation time from weeks to minutes

Your team spends weeks reading papers, attending conferences, and waiting on contract research orgs. Science Live gives you direct access to structured, validated findings — and lets you commission replications on what matters to your business.

Commission targeted replications

Every published claim on Science Live can be independently re-run on your data — bespoke replications delivered by Vitenhub AS using the open platform. Independent validation on the claims your investment depends on, without hiring a CRO.

Skip the preliminary work

Browse structured findings directly. Reproducible methods, ready-to-use datasets, replicated claims — try them yourself in minutes instead of weeks of literature review.

Trust over AI summaries

Every claim is cryptographically signed and traceable to its author and methodology. No hallucinated summaries — full provenance on every finding.

Direct researcher engagement

Identify and contact the researchers behind the work that matters to you. Bypass academic publishing delays and CRO markups.
