Partners
CODECHECK is a collaboration project lead by Stephen Eglen and Daniel Nüst together with a community of codecheckers, collaborators in the scientific, academic publishing, and scholarly infrastructure communities, and a codecheckers team.
Team
Stephen Eglen (Co-PI)
Stephen Eglen is a professor in Computational Neuroscience at the University of Cambridge. He has over 20 years experience as a researcher in Computational Neuroscience, and has worked on several projects encouraging more code and data sharing in Neuroscience. Most recently this led to a trial project with the journal Nature Neuroscience, and our guidelines for sharing in Neuroscience. Stephen is also a fellow of the Alan Turing Institute (ATI), based in the British Library, and a member of the International Neuroinformatics Coordinating Facility which will provide logistical support e.g. on supercompute infrastructure.
Stephen contributes his domain-specific expertise in computational neuroscience and Open Science.
Daniel Nüst (Co-PI)
Daniel Nüst is a postdoctoral researcher and research software engineer ith the Chair of Geoinformatics, TU Dresden, and at the Institute for Geoinformatics (ifgi), University of Münster. He develops tools for open and reproducible geoscientific research and is a proponent for open scholarship and reproducibility in the projects NFDI4Earth, Opening Reproducible Research (o2r), and OPTIMETA. He is also engaged in the Open Source and Open Science communities and has held workshops on Reproducible Research in geosciences, GIScience, and digital humanities.
Daniel contributes his technical expertise in reproducible research & scholarly communication infrastructures and geospatial data science.

Conferences
The Reproducible AGILE initiative conducts reproducibility reviews as part of full paper peer review for the Association of Geographic Information Laboratories in Europe’s (AGILE) annual conference series. The reproducibility reviews fulfil the CODECHECK principles and therefore they are listed in the CODECHECK register. Be sure to check out their Guidelines for Authors and Reviewers.

Projects
ReproHack is our collaboration partner for events and education.
Open Science @ ITC provides CODECHECKs for their members.
CODECHECK is a member in the German Reproducibility Network.
Funding
The project was supported by a Mozilla Open Science Mini-Grant (see official announcement) from February 2019 to May 2020.
The project was supported by the NWO Open Science Fund from March 2024 to February 2025, see NWO project description page.
