The Digital Research Academy - DRA - was created in 2023 to meet the increasing demand for training in open science and research. In this episode I talk to the two founders, Heidi Seibold and Joyce Kao, as well as members like Yeganeh Khazaei (Yegi) and Danny Garside.

In the second part episode on the Turing Way, I meet with contributors like Patricia Herterich and Sarah Gibson - who were part of the original team - as well as Malvika Sharan and Anne Steele who joined later.
Through these conversations I hope to show how the Turing Way transitioned from being an online guide for reproducibility and open science to a thriving community with members across the globe.

The International Conference of Supercomputing, ISC, met in Hamburg (Germany) between 12-16 May 2024. For the first time, a workshop on Research Software Engineering was held there. And I talk to some of the organisers, Stefanie Reuter and Matt Archer and presenters, Eleanor Broadway and Samantha Wittke, how it all went.

What a fun day that was: the National Research Software Day in Hilversum on 23 April 2024. It was organised by the eScience Center in the Netherlands and in the course of this episode you will hear from one of the organisers, Lieke, a keynote speaker - Jenny Bryan, members of a panel discussions on research infrastructure.
But also from 4 artists - because the organisers added an art exhibition to the one day conference.

The sound samples you can hear in the episode are from one of the artists Christian Schwarz.
