COST Action CA15203 (2016-2021): MitoEAGLE
Evolution-Age-Gender-Lifestyle-Environment: mitochondrial fitness mapping
WG1 MitoEAGLE protocols, terminology, documentation
WG1 Action
- Standard operating procedures and user requirement document: Protocols, terminology, documentation
- Many analyses lack statistical power within a single study. Statistical combination of different studies is often difficult due to lack of methodological standardization and harmonization.

- Think less about a simple P value and more about the scientific importance of the confidence interval bounds for some experimental result. Even a convincing P value of 0.005 can be associated with a confidence interval whose bounds indicate an effect that is scientifically inconsequential.
- Rely on repeated studies to accumulate evidence for some biological phenomenon.

- The Project Repository Journal - https://www.europeandissemination.eu/the-project-repository-journal
- In February 2019 the first edition of The Project Repository Journal will be launched. Fully open access and dedicated to EU funded projects it will become the first point of call for project dissemination. Containing information on future funding calls and open access guidelines it will feature projects from across all different funding mechanisms and allow them to publish results, annual reports or general updates about the progress of the project.
