Big Open Science Podcast

The Big Open Science Podcast (BigOS) focuses on the topic of Open Science within the context of the humanities and social sciences ( SSH ). It explores the theoretical, practical, and infrastructural aspects of Open Science, addressing key questions such as its ethical foundations, its global and institutional practices, or open research infrastructures. Content includes: research findings, case studies, interviews with experts, and reflections on workshops and study visits conducted as part of the Centre of Digital Humanities’s projects. The primary objective of the podcast is to disseminate the findings of the SCIROS project to both academia and the broader scientific community.

  OpenEdition and the State of Open Science in France

  Sep 7, 20261h 26mS1

  (00:00:00) OpenEdition and the State of Open Science in France (00:02:30) MEET THE OPEN EDITION TEAM (00:10:19) PATHS TO OPEN SCIENCE (00:25:48) MEANINGS OF OPEN SCIENCE (00:38:50) BETWEEN MOVEMENT AND ORGANIZATION (00:55:23) CHALLENGES TO OPEN SCIENCE In this special episode of the BigOS Podcast, Piotr Wciślik and Magdalena Wnuk present a profile of OpenEdition, the core institution of the open science movement in France and internationally, as the national coordinator of the European OPERAS consortium. Unlike the other two episodes that the SIROS team recorded in OpenEdition headquarters in Marseille, which were interviews with Simon Dumas Primbault and Pierre Mounier , this is a group portrait that features voices of six other members of the OpenEdition team: Karla Avanço, Marina Cortés Aldaz, Laurent Delval, Sandra Guigonis, François Pacaud, and Alessia Smaniotto. It is a very diverse group both in terms of professional roles and length of service, which illustrates the complexity of OpenEdition as an organisation, and also represents multiple perspectives on open science in France. In the episode, we discuss how and why they joined OpenEdition, what open science means to them, how an open science movement changes while transforming into an infrastructure, and what challenges to open science they perceive going forward.

  Measuring the Impact of Open Science: CSIL, PathOS, and the Cost–Benefit Perspective

  May 14, 202635 min

  In this episode of the Big Open Science Podcast, recorded during a study visit at CSIL – Centre for Industrial Studies in Milan, we explore how the impact of Open Science can be understood, measured, and evaluated from a policy and economic perspective. We speak with Louis Colnot about the PathOS project, a European initiative that developed analytical frameworks and tools to assess what Open Science delivers to research systems, society, and innovation. The conversation focuses on how methodologies such as Cost–Benefit Analysis can be adapted to capture the complex dynamics of Open Science ecosystems. The episode also examines the application of these tools through concrete case studies, including RCAAP, Portugal’s national repository infrastructure. This example illustrates how Open Science practices can generate measurable effects in areas such as knowledge dissemination, collaboration, and economic efficiency. Together, these insights show that evaluating Open Science requires not only technical indicators and policy frameworks, but also robust methodological approaches capable of capturing its broader societal and economic value.
