Understanding environmental systems, providing clean water, predicting water availability, and understanding material properties are just a few of the areas where data science is enabling science breakthroughs. This talk will describe some of these science challenges and the role of data science in helping to address these challenges. In a national laboratory environment, the focus is on team science and tackling challenges that require an integrated team of people from many disciplines. In this talk I will describe some of the challenges we, as data scientists, are helping to solve, and some of the next data science and machine learning challenges that need to be tackled. Hosted by the Department of Mathematics. For questions, email ccaprau@csufresno.edu.
