ODISSEI Podcast

In this episode, Tom Emery talks with Jack Fitzgerald, a PhD candidate in economics at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam and the Tinbergen Institute. Jack tells us all about replication, and how he developed his passion for it. He points out that replication can be a very useful tool for early career researchers to understand how experts in the field think about and conduct research, down to their code. He and Tom dig into how the Replication Games could change the research culture and how they came to be. Jack also discusses the challenges and opportunities inherent to administrative data, and suggests how those data could be made more accessible for replication.Affiliations: Jack Fitzgerald, PhD Candidate, School of Business and Economics, Ethics, Governance and Society; Tinbergen InstituteDr. Tom Emery - Executive Director of ODISSEI, the Dutch National Infrastructure for Social Science; Associate Professor, Department of Public Administration and Sociology of Erasmus University, RotterdamUseful links: https://www.i4replication.org/https://www.i4replication.org/blog/replication-games-in-secure-environments-replicating-research-with-dutch-administrative-data

In this episode, Tom Emery is joined by Laura Boeschoten to explore the concept of Data Donation. They discuss what it entails, how it works, and the potential it has to shape the future of research and data sharing.Affiliations: Laura Boeschoten is an Assistant Professor at the Department of Methodology and Statistics at Utrecht University. She currently works on building a Digital Data Donation platform which researchers can use to conduct data donation studies. Her research focuses on the various methodological challenges that researchers face when performing data donation studies and on designing intuitive and simple data donation workflows for both researchers and participants.Dr. Tom Emery – Executive Director of ODISSEI, the Dutch National Infrastructure for Social Science; Associate Professor, Department of Public Administration and Sociology of Erasmus University, RotterdamUseful linkshttps://datadonation.eu/
