Martin Krzywinski works in bioinformatics, data visualisation, science communication and the interface of science and art. He applies design, both data and artistic, to assist discovery, explanation and engagement with scientific data and concepts.
Martin is the creator of Circos and hive plots and his information graphics have appeared in the New York Times, Wired, Scientific American and covers of numerous books and scientific journals, such as Nature and Genome Research.

Research Data Culture at UQ: A Forum for Research Students and EMCRs
Date: Friday, 7 February 2020
Time: 9am–5pm
Location: Advanced Engineering Building 49-301, UQ (St Lucia)
Cost: FREE
This is a UQ-based Forum for Research Students and EMCRs. We will provide information (tools, data and culture) that will help you navigate your research career (specially targeted to the UQ research community). The invitation is issued for anyone who is interested in the topic of "Research Data Culture".
To be data-driven requires an overarching data culture that couples several elements, including high-quality trusted data, broad and relevant access, data literacy and fit data-driven decision-making processes.
If your research involves data then come to learn about what resources are available to you as a researcher.
The forum is from 9am to 12pm. Optional workshops from 1pm to 5pm.
This event is organised and sponsored by The Characterisation Community.
