One Year Anniversary

This is our 1 year anniversary! We have two amazing speakers, similar to our meetup a year ago.

Speakers:

Pri Oberoi is a Data Scientist with a background in bioinformatics and health care. She has spent her career cross applying statistical methods and techniques between domains; from projects at the Smithsonian Institution National Museum of Natural History to the Food and Drug Administration. Currently, she is at a public startup in the Department of Commerce where she develops machine learning models in R to make precision-policy changes and push for open data. Pri does pro bono work on the side, usually around issues that impact women, people of color, and LGBT folks. Pri can be found at http://www.prioberoi.com

Clare Gollnick’s obsession with data and inference began a decade ago as a neuroengineer, researching information processing in the brain and designing technologies to help the nervous system recover from disease. After earning her Ph.D. from the Georgia Institute of Technology and Emory University in 2014, Clare joined Terbium Labs as the Chief Data Scientist. Now she spends her days writing algorithms and building a distributed data infrastructure that searches for illicit activity and leaked proprietary data on the dark web.
