How Science is (mis)communicated in Online Media

Épisode 15

mercredi 15 février 2023 • Durée 33:56

Ágnes Horvát is an Assistant Professor in Communication and Computer Science at Northwestern University. Her work focuses on understanding how online networks induce biased information production, sharing and processing across digital platforms.

- The new Post-normal era for science - Having an awareness of the context and values that impact scientific research

Where is science communication in relation to digital platforms? - Scholars work hard on discovering scientific findings, but information doesn’t always reach the public appropriately.

How to communicate scientific research - it’s not just about communicating with scientists and general audiences. News needs to reach policymakers and governments too for real change.

The production of scientific research has exploded recently thanks to decision-making demands - and the pandemic had a lot to do with this. Scientists were under pressure to carry out research quickly and at the expense of quality.

Misinformation can have detrimental consequences - even leading to vaccine hesitancy in some communities.

The surprising effect of retracting papers - papers that get retracted in the future are more likely to receive more engagement before getting withdrawn.

Why are paper retractions on the rise? - again, the recent pandemic has caused an increase in retractions.

Is social media helping or hindering science research? - while the platforms are helping to spread real news, social media also helps the spread of false information.

How Observability is Advancing Data Reliability and Data Quality

Épisode 14

mercredi 18 mai 2022 • Durée 43:49

Modern Data Infrastructures and platforms store huge amounts of multidimensional data. But - data pipelines frequently break and a machine learning algorithm's performance is only as good as the quality and reliability of the data itself.

In this episode we are joined by Lior Gavish and Ryan Kearns of Monte Carlo, to talk about how the new concept of Data Observability is advancing Data Reliability and Data Quality at Scale.

Episode Summary

A overview of Data Reliability/Quality and why it is so critical for organisations
The limitations of traditional approaches in the area of Data Reliability
Data observability and why it is different to traditional approaches to Data Quality
The 5 Pillars of Data Observability
How to improve data reliability/quality at scale and generate trust in data with stakeholders.
How observability can lead to better outcomes for Data Science and engineering teams?
Examples of data observability use cases in industry
