Data Sciences Speaker Series

The Data Sciences Speaker Series is a collaborative marquee series, whose focus is data science and its intersection with other fields. Together, we seek to advance knowledge in the field of data science by featuring world-class speakers from academic, healthcare, industry, finance, technology, and other sectors and industries. In doing so, we facilitate the exchange of ideas, information, and knowledge among researchers, practitioners, and other professionals, and to enhance educational opportunities for students and trainees. 

Seminars are typically held in-person monthly, from September to May. Recordings are available post-event for those that cannot attend in person.
