    Episode 19 - Academic Data Science Portfolios

    Stephanie and John talk about the academic data science portfolios. What are they? How are they different than industry data science portfolios or more traditional academic portfolios? Also check out the bloopers at the end! Some good links about portfolios and examples are: https://davidventuri.com/portfolio, https://www.dataquest.io/blog/build-a-data-science-portfolio/. We discuss data driven curriculum vitae (CV), including the package by Nick Strayer: https://github.com/nstrayer/datadrivencv. Additional tools are the scholar (https://cran.r-project.org/package=scholar), gcite (https://cran.r-project.org/package=gcite), and rscopus (https://cran.r-project.org/package=rscopus) packages. Disclaimer: John wrote gcite and rscopus. We acknowledge the impetus for gcite was from this blog post by Jeff Leek: https://simplystatistics.tumblr.com/post/13203811645/an-r-function-to-analyze-your-google-scholar.

    Episode 18: Academic Software Development

    Stephanie and John talk about what is an "Academic Data Science Portfolio". While there is a lot of great information about what are (i) data science portfolios in industry and (ii) academic portfolios, we aimed to discuss the intersection of these two, why you need one, what goes in it, and so on.

    Episode 16: Post-docs Part 1

    Stephanie and John discuss some fun pandemic-changes, like 2 Zoom's at once. John thinks 2 Zooms at once should be a crime. We talk about choosing a post-doc, moving, and the pros and cons of post-docs vs. applying to academic positions vs. industry. We use industry in a large general bucket, though there are many different roles. We talk about how you push on a field of research, similar to the graphic here: http://matt.might.net/articles/phd-school-in-pictures/ Tweet at us at https://twitter.com/strictlystat and https://twitter.com/stephaniehicks and The Corresponding Author: https://twitter.com/correspondauth
