Abstract
Open-source software is the lifeblood of many modern research projects, allowing researchers to push boundaries, build collaborations, and work transparently. The International Brain Laboratory (IBL), a group of more than twenty labs working together to understand the neuroscience of decision-making, uses open-source software and other open science practices extensively to advance its research. Here, we interview two of the IBL's research software engineers to learn more about their career paths and how they view open-source development.
