This month we thought we would take a break from our usual episode format and have ourselves as the guests. Listen to us reflect on our year volunteering with PyDataMCR. We talk about what we did this year, including Google Next! We also talk a little about learning to rank. We realise this is an insider view, so this months meetup will be an open retro so have a think about what you want from next year.

Request: If you know about recording events for YouTube, and can help us out, feel free to dm us (see our social channels below).

If you’re in Data in Manchester or Edinburgh chances are you already know Liam as one of the organisers of MancML, and also the sponsor of PyDataMCR and PyDataEdinburgh.From what we have seen of Liam, and Cathcart Associates is that they have a better understanding of what data science actually consists of, and give back to the communities they are a part of.

We discuss the elusive “trophy data scientist”, as well as some tips for anybody in data and a discussion of expected salaries.

PyDataMCR - Episode 0 - NUMFOCUS with Dr Gina Helfrich

Welcome to the official PyDataMCR podcast, In this episode we give an introduction to PyData,NUMFOCUS and some of the organisers.

The mission of NumFOCUS is to promote sustainable high-level programming languages, open code development, and reproducible scientific research. We accomplish this mission through our educational programs and events as well as through fiscal sponsorship of open source scientific computing projects. We aim to increase collaboration and communication within the data science and scientific computing community.

PyData is an educational program of NumFOCUS, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in the United States. PyData provides a forum for the international community of users and developers of data analysis tools to share ideas and learn from each other. The global PyData network promotes discussion of best practices, new approaches, and emerging technologies for data management, processing, analytics, and visualization. PyData communities approach data science using many languages, including (but not limited to) Python, Julia, and R.

Dr Gina Helfrich is the Communications Director and Program Manager for Diversity & Inclusion at NumFOCUS, a non-profit that supports better science through open code.
