How about „ERЯOR: A Bug Bounty Program for Science”?

Malte Elson, Bern

Abstract

The project Examining the Reproducibility and Robustness of Research (ERЯOR) is a comprehensive program to systematically detect, report, and prevent errors in scientific publications modelled after bug bounty programs in the technology industry with two major goals: 1) Estimating a benefit-cost ratio of funding error detection, and 2) Obtaining robust empirical estimates of types of errors and their prevalence in the literature.

Mephi's AI summary: The scientific enterprise, as a human profession not immune to error, has developed several failsafe mechanisms (e.g., peer review) that also reflect one of its basic tenets: Science is self-correcting.
