I'd check which uni/department works in your field/works on something similar to you, and contact them. you might get a prof to have a student do a bachelor or master's thesis on your topic, or even have a doctoral student do a study.
I've used rmarkdown back when i was in academia, having dabbled in jupyter years before. I think the main issue with literate programming is knowing your target audience. people differ wildly in their tech skills, and i guess that those people who use literate programming to its potential are the same who are happy to use org-mode.
others just copy paste their analysis scripts they cobbled together into whatever interface and copy the result into word and start formatting.
well yeah, but there is money in knowing what to avoid. in academia it's more like "why can't i reproduce this effect i read about in this fancy paper, am i stupid or what", when maybe, they just got lucky, or had plenty of very reasonable analysis options to choose from, or simply fudged the numbers. i fear that in much of academia there is a huge incentive to publish at whatever cost
hatte nach der ersten Meldung mal gesucht, aber tatsächlich keine Liste gefunden. würde mich aber schon auch interessieren
