2022 BMC Speaker Series: Data journalism research in non-academic settings

Data journalism is a unique example of research methods used outside of the academic context, but resources on entering the field are scarce. This talk will outline Ilia's transition from academia to visual, data-driven storytelling at The Pudding, and provide a primer on how to tell engaging, evidence-based stories outside of the typical scientific setting.

Ilia Blinderman is a senior data scientist and developer at The Pudding, a data-driven storytelling publication he co-founded in 2017.
