The second episode of SO Cast is now online!

What is an Open Source Program Office? How does it help researchers and laboratories? And why is open-source software essential for the reproducibility and credibility of research?

To mark its launch, the OSPO at the University of Grenoble Alpes highlights the key role of open-source software in research: collaboration, transparency, and innovation at the heart of scientific practices, with insights from Roberto Di Cosmo, director of Software Heritage, and Giacomo Tenaglia, head of CERN’s OSPO.
