What does a data scientist actually do? And how do you become one?
Data is everywhere. Every day, vast amounts of information are generated through research, healthcare, business, technology, and our daily lives. But collecting data is only part of the story. The real challenge lies in making sense of it.
That's where data scientists come in.
In this episode, we meet four data scientists whose careers have taken them in very different directions, demonstrating that there is no single path into the field.
Joining us are:
Dr Farzana Jahan, Lecturer in Statistics and Data Science at Murdoch University
Dr Nick Tierney, Statistical Consultant
Joanna Salerno, Data Scientist and Developer at QCIF Digital Research Services
Dr Stuart Schvetz, Senior Data Scientist at the Hunter Medical Research Institute
Together, they share the experiences, opportunities, and turning points that led them into data science.
Whether you're exploring study or career options, looking to better understand the role of data science in research and industry, or simply curious about the people behind the data, this episode offers an engaging look at one of the fastest-growing professions in the world.
Our host is Macarena Rojas, Engagement and Outreach Manager at QCIF.
