25 | 25 | Building Communities of Practice around Environmental Open Data Science | Julia Lowndes | 3:30 PM | May 8 2019 | Fuller Hall | https://csvconf.com/speakers/#julia-lowndes | 2019-05-08T15:30:00 | Environmental scientists are a diverse community that ranges from climatologists to geneticists, but we are united by an enormous need to work efficiently with data – and by the fact that we seldom have formal computing or data analysis training of any kind. There is great opportunity to borrow from the work of software engineers and use collaborative open tools that facilitate better science in less time. However, a fundamental shift is needed in the environmental science community that prioritizes data science and provides emerging scientific leaders training in open science tools and practices to strengthen and accelerate their work. I will discuss my work to catalyze this shift through two programs I have developed and lead at the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis (NCEAS) at the University of California at Santa Barbara. The first is the Ocean Health Index training program, which teaches international government and academic scientists how to channel the best available scientific information into marine policy using our scientific method and tools. And the second I have recently launched in January 2019 as a Mozilla Fellow: Openscapes, a mentorship program that empowers environmental scientists with open data science tools and grows the community of practice. | https://csvconf.com/img/speakers-2019/jlowndes.jpg |
51 | 51 | Squishy Amoeba-Like Objects | Darius Kazemi | 3:30 PM | May 9 2019 | Fuller Hall | https://csvconf.com/speakers/#darius-kazemi | 2019-05-09T15:30:00 | On June 19th, 1970, a group of computer scientists who were inventing the internet referred to key pieces of its proposed design as "squishy amoeba-like objects". Amoebas are porous yet have well-defined boundaries. Thinking about these creatures gives us new ways to think about networks and communities and technology. This talk makes a case for the squishy amoeba-like object as an organizing principle for what is broadly being called "the decentralized web", a web outside of monolithic, monopolistic actors. | https://csvconf.com/img/speakers-2019/dkazemi.jpg |
