In this video, Josh Hersant speaks with Editor-in-Chief of Experimental Physiology, Damian Bailey, previous Editor-in-Chief, Mike Tipton, and the lead author of the Registered Reports Editorial, Peter Rasmussen, as they celebrate the first published Registered Report.

Registered reports are a type of scientific publication in which a study's research methodology and proposed analysis are peer-reviewed before the actual data collection begins.

Experimental Physiology is one of the only physiology journals to offer authors this article type. Learn more: https://physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/toc/10.1111/(ISSN)1469-445X.registered-reports
