GoKawiilImperial College panel urges science to rethink how it treats failure
At Imperial College London's Failure in Science conference, academics including Vice Provost Mary Ryan and Professor Jem Woods discussed how institutional structures—grant competition, rigid education systems, and pressure to appear successful—shape researchers' willingness to take risks. The conference, part of the Good Science Project's podcast series, examined failure not just as a personal experience but as a systemic issue within research culture.
