Biography

It is often challenging for researchers to conduct open, reproducible, and responsible research. Dr Charles Rahal will introduce key concepts related to it, including the use of free and open-source software (FOSS), which can significantly contribute to maintaining the integrity of the scientific record. Dr Rahal will share how the new tools built in FOSS can help researchers conduct large-scale social research more effectively.
