Data science and statistics in sickness and in health
6 June 2019
On 6 June 2019 the Network for Applied Statisticians in Health (NASH) hosted its annual event entitled, 'data science and statistics in sickness and in health'.
The relationship between statistics and data science is intimate yet awkward. These rigid separations are unhealthy as both camps make huge contributions to our understanding of the world, but often hold each other at arms length. However, their overlapping aims mean that each side can learn much from the other.
As a group of statisticians, NASH appreciates the power of data science. This year's Annunal Event was designed to facilitate a healthier relationship between data science and statistics.
