**ZOOM LINK WILL BE SENT DIRECTLY FROM NAOMI.GAGGI@NYULANGONE.ORG****ZOOM LINK IS ALSO ATTACHED TO THE CONFIRMATION EMAIL FOR THIS EVENT**please reach out to Naomi if you have any questions!Bradley Voytek is a Professor in the Department of Cognitive Science, the Halıcıoğlu Data Science Institute, and the Neurosciences Graduate Program at UC San Diego. He is both an Alfred P. Sloan Neuroscience Research Fellow and a Kavli Fellow of the National Academies of Sciences, as well as a founding faculty member of the UC San Diego Halıcıoğlu Data Science Institute and the Undergraduate Data Science program. After his PhD at UC Berkeley, he joined Uber as their first data scientist—when it was a 10-person startup—where he helped build their data science strategy and team.His research lab combines large-scale data science and machine learning to study how brain regions communicate with one another, and how that communication changes with aging and disease. He is an advocate for promoting science to the public and speaks extensively with students at all grade levels about the joys of scientific research and discovery. In addition to his academic publications, his outreach work has appeared in outlets ranging from Scientific American and NPR to the San Diego Comic-Con. He is currently writing a book with neuroscientist Ashley Juavinett regarding the powerful future of data science in neuroscience discovery, though his most important contribution to science is his book with fellow neuroscientist Tim Verstynen, &quot;Do Zombies Dream of Undead Sheep?&quot;, by Princeton University Press.The goal of this workshop is to be comfortable discussing science with broad audiences, ranging from elementary school students to world leaders. Dr. Voytek will give an introduction to the communication tools and recommendations needed to successfully convey scientific information—and complexity—with the target audience: postdocs, students, and early career researchers.Click here to learn more about Dr. Voytek:https://cogsci.ucsd.edu/people/faculty/bradley-voytek.html
