My name is Thomas Klebel and I am a sociologist. I work as a researcher and data scientist in the Open and Reproducible Research Group at Know-Center GmbH in Graz. Since March 2020, I am project manager and researcher in the H2020 project ON-MERRIT.
My thesis in sociology was on social mobility, but I spend most of my professional time now researching questions on scholarly communication, bibliometrics and research integrity. Luckily, this also involves munging, analysing and visualising data which I quite enjoy.
Although my focus has been on sociology and stats/data science for a few years now, I initially trained as a musician, receiving a BA for playing the cello.
