The ResearchOps Podcast

Episode 8: Andy Garber-Browne on Tools

Today we have Andy Garber-Browne on the podcast. Andy will be speaking at ReOpsConf2022 alongside Dr Carolyn Morgan about the ResearchOps Community's project on tools. Selecting the right research tool is hard. We wanted to make the tool evaluation and selection process easier and save hundreds of hours for researchers, ReOps specialists, and those who support research, by creating a database of tools according to what types of teams and industries use them. Learn all about the project, and what the team will deliver at the conference.
