Sophia Crüwell

PhD-student at the Meta-Research Innovation Centre Berlin (METRIC-B)

Sophia is a first-year PhD student at the meta-research innovation centre in Berlin (METRIC-Berlin). Her academic background is in Psychology and Philosophy — she studied Philosophy and Natural Sciences (Psychology) at the University of Cambridge, and did a Master’s at the University of Amsterdam, majoring in Psychological Methods and Statistics and minoring in Logic. Focussing on metascience for her PhD seemed like the perfect continuation of this combination of subjects! Sophia’s current research interests include questionable research practices and academic incentive structures. Sophia is passionate about truly open and reproducible science. She co-founded and co-directs the global ReproducibiliTea initiative and co-hosts the ReproducibiliTea podcast.
