On November 10 at 12 PM ET, please join Carolina Data Science Now for “Navigating Politics & the Law.” The event will feature three lightning talks by professors and researchers in UNC-Chapel Hill’s academic community, centered around how data science is used to examine political action, policy processes, and timely issues such as criminal justice and economic change.
The seminar will be moderated by Sarah Davis, a Senior Research Project Manager at the Renaissance Computing Institute (RENCI) and a co-PI on an NSF-funded workshop that is leading efforts to develop judicial training on data science. Speakers will include Cameron Ballard-Rosa (Political Science), Frank Baumgartner (Political Science), and Shannon McGregor (Hussman School of Journalism and Media).
These talks will be followed by a guided panel, an opportunity for questions and answers with the speakers, and a discussion with the data science community at UNC-Chapel Hill.
