09 Mar 2021

Description

On the show today, I have the pleasure to talk to Jillian Augustine. Jillian is currently working as a Data Scientist in the Digital Excellence Team of the international paper and packaging manufacturer Mondi, but has received your Phd in Molecular Biology. On the show we are discussing Jillian experience working in academia and private industry. She is contrasting the mindset prominent on both sides, and what is needed to be successful, as well what industry can learn from academia, and vice versa. In addition we briefly discuss different ways how domain experts and data scientists work together most efficiently, and how improvements of tooling and software might change this relationship in the future. We end this episode, talking about diversity and inclusiveness. Jillian shares with us, what it means, and how it feels to be part of an underrepresented group. The importance of role models, and the intrinsic value of inclusiveness. --- Jillian Augustine (LinkedIn) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jillianaugustine/ Personal homepage - https://www.jill.codes/ Woman Techmakers Vienna : From Test Tube to Data Lakes by Jillian Augustine - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFFU282Fkn8&t=39s The MDN Web Docs Accessibility guide - This covers a range of best practices when working with HTML, JavaScript and CSS : https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Accessibility Moving into Data Science from Non-CS Academia - Women in Data Science CEE 2021 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcvFKknw508
