Today’s episode features Caroline Goldsmith, Associate Director, Charleston Hub, who talks with Dr. Mark Hahnel, VP of Open Research, Digital Science, and Founder of Figshare.
Last July, to understand more about how the research world is transforming, what’s influencing change and how roles are impacted, Digital Science reached out to the community through a global survey and in-depth interviews: “We need answers to pressing issues and there is a growing expectation for research to deliver. But increasing demands, tightening budgets, and lack of infrastructure can stand in the way of progress. We need solutions and many are turning to emerging technologies for support.”
In this interview, Dr. Hahnel shares the key findings from this survey and the interviews in the Research Transformation Report.
The survey can be found here: digital-science.com/academic-research-transformation
A video summarizing these key findings is available here: https://youtu.be/ZSxKTDZHwuQ?feature=shared
