Abstract:

In the era of big data there is no shortage of information. But real-world data can be noisy, messy, multidimensional and unwieldy, masking the information content in the data. Data visualization is a powerful way to see the information hidden in our data, to understand the story our collected data is trying to communicate to us. In this talk we explore a number of dynamic visualizations for multidimensional data, each providing a compelling platform to effectively communicate data-driven insights to stakeholders and other decision-makers in the health sciences.
