Data And Communities: Sharing And Protecting Data

UW–Madison’s 2022 Data Science Research Bazaar is an event you won’t want to miss. Throughout February, people from across campus and the community will have opportunities to share their work, collaborate, and discuss their data science interests. The Data Science Research Bazaar is an inclusive, community-building event at UW–Madison for researchers, data scientists, entrepreneurs and community members, including students.

The aim is to equip researchers from all career stages with the digital skills and tools required to do their research better, faster and smarter. For more information, view the full Data Science Research Bazaar schedule or please send us an email at contact@datascience.wisc.edu.
