PyData Eindhoven 2022

Using data in new and unexpected ways to solve real problems for real people - from farmers in Africa to refugees and the war in Ukraine

"AI? Back in my day, we just called it Data and Statistics. And it wasn't sexy at all.
But we still did the same thing - we use data to improve people's decision making.
To help improve people's lives."

As a Managing Data Scientist, Marijn Markus has over 6 years of experience in the field.
In this talk, Marijn Markus will share his views and experience on Data Science
The vast differences between theory and practice, the dysfunctionality of organizations,

And how Data can be applied to change lives
From burnouts, refugees, farming and fighting crime
To the conflict in Ukraine today.
