Next Data Science Strategy Seminar Set

NIH’s Office of Data Science Strategy (ODSS) hosts a seminar series to highlight exemplars of data sharing and reuse on the second Friday of each month at noon ET. This monthly series highlights researchers who have taken existing data and found clever ways to reuse the data or generate new findings.

The next seminar will feature Drs. Charles Schmitt and Danielle Braun. On Sept. 13 at noon, they will present “Climate and Health Outcomes Research Data Systems (CHORDS).” The CHORDS project aims to support biomedical researchers in finding and using the data sets, tools and models needed to conduct environmental health research.

Schmitt is director of the office of data science, NIEHS, and a senior scientist in the NIEHS Division of Translational Toxicology. Braun is director of data science for environmental and climate health in the department of biostatistics at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health. She is also a research scientist at the Department of Data Science at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

The series is open to the public; registration is required. For more information, including how to register, visit: go.nih.gov/kSJr9NH
