BYU Record Linking Lab and the 1918 Influenza Pandemic The Research Like a Pro Genealogy Podcast

- History
Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about the Record Linking Lab (RLL) at Brigham Young University. Professor Joseph P. Price talks with us about how his background in economics and interest in his personal family history led to the creation of the RLL. By using machine learning and making connections across data, the RLL hopes to provide better family history experiences for others whether they are using FamilySearch's Family Tree or visiting a museum. We discuss several of the RLL's projects, including the Census Tree, African-American Families, Automated Indexing, and Families of the 1918 Pandemic.
