Community

Network and co-work with others. Data Science doesn't need to be lonely

Ways to Connect

We offer multiple ways of engaging with others in the Fred Hutch Data Science community:

Learning Community Values

At the Data Science Lab, we are strong believers in the power of social learning. Our values are:

  1. Research doesn’t need to be lonely. We learn and work best with our peers.
  2. The ways that data impacts our work at Fred Hutch are wide and varied. There is no one right way, but there are best practices we can aspire to.
  3. Sharing knowledge in public is important. Together, our collective knowledge can help us all improve how we work. Everyone knows something that could help someone else in our community.
  4. Asking questions is a way of taking care of our peers. They often may have the same questions, but might be reluctant to ask them.

Community Participation Guidelines

All DaSL Community events adhere to the DaSL Community Participation Guidelines. This is to ensure a safe space for all.

Data Science Hangouts

More information soon.

Datathons

A Datathon is a day in which folks get together to explore a dataset together, practice what we have learned in data science creatively, and share it with each other! Past Datathons have looked at spatial data, health survey data, and climate data.

They usually are at the end of the quarter. Lunch will be provided!
