In this episode, we look at the question of how to evaluate large research infrastructures – from the Large Hadron Collider to the European Social Survey. We conducted a very exciting online interview with our colleagues Neil Brown and Peter Kolarz from Technopolis Group | UK. We learnt that a new research infrastructure is like a life commitment and that you have to immerse yourself in order to understand the effects on all dimensions.
