UVa Datapalooza

Mark your calendar: Friday, September 18 it’s Datapalooza! Kick off your weekend with a showcase of data-driven activities, resources, and services at UVa. There’s going to be highlights of data research across grounds, a resource fair, panel discussions, presentations from Data Science Institute Fellows, a data science talk by Linda Abraham, co-founder of comScore, and much more. Plus, we’ll be there! It all goes down in Newcomb Hall.
