Thomas Klebel
Senior Scientist
A sociologist studying how the research system works and how well-intentioned reforms can produce unexpected outcomes.
His work combines large-scale data analysis with sociological thinking to investigate patterns in knowledge production, publishing, and research assessment.
He studies Open Science, publishing costs, knowledge production, funding dynamics, and reproducibility. He is increasingly interested in how generative AI is reshaping how research is produced, reviewed, and evaluated.
Methodologically, he works with large bibliographic datasets, Bayesian multilevel models, and computational simulations.
