Talking about CPF and open science with Sage

Konrad Turek had the pleasure of speaking with Sage Research Methods about open science, open-source knowledge production and the Comparative Panel File (CPF) Open Harmonization Project.

In this video, Konrad discusses:

🔹 The “production” side of open science

🔹 How open-source models are shaping social science research

🔹 The goals and progress of the CPF harmonization initiative

🔹 Key advantages—and challenges—of collaborative, transparent data work

Open-source science is reshaping how we collaborate and innovate—making research faster, more flexible, and better equipped to tackle complex societal challenges.

Unfortunately (and surprisingly), the full interview is behind a paywall for now.

But for more information, you can also check this open article that discusses these things in detail: Turek K. (2025) Accelerating social science knowledge production with the coordinated open-source model, Quality & Quantity. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11135-024-02020-7
