Things You Should Know About Data Science But Probably Don’t – A Discussion with Eugene Dubossarsky

MR Realities is series of podcasts in which Dave McCaughan and I discuss a wide range of topics important to marketing researchers with special guests. We ask our guests questions you would want to ask, the way you would ask them, not just what we’re interested in. And, we let our guests speak for themselves even when we disagree.

For this session, we’ve invited Eugene Dubossarsky, Director and Principal Trainer at Presciient, Head Founder of Data Science Sydney, Head Founder of Sydney Users of R Forum, and Founder of Connect R. Eugene earned a PhD in Computing Science from the University of Technology Sydney and has been working in Data Science for two decades. Few know as much about the Reality of Data Science as Eugene.

MR Realities podcasts are perfect for commutes or when you’re tired of reading or staring at a computer screen! Below are links to the ones we’ve done so far, including our discussion with Eugene. They’re audio only and no registration is necessary:
