EARL Seattle Keynote Speaker announcement: Julia Silge

Blogs home Featured Image

We’re delighted to announce that Julia Silge will be joining us on 7 November in Seattle as our Keynote speaker.

Julia is a Data Scientist at Stack Overflow, has a PhD in astrophysics and an abiding love for Jane Austen (which we totally understand!). Before moving into Data Science and discovering R, Julia worked in academia and ed tech, and was a NASA Datanaut. She enjoys making beautiful charts, programming in R, text mining, and communicating about technical topics with diverse audiences. In fact, she loves R and text mining so much, she literally wrote the book on it: Text Mining with R: A Tidy Approach!

We can’t wait to see what Julia has to say in November.

Submit an abstract

Abstract submissions are open for both the US Roadshow in November and London in September. You could be on the agenda with Julia in Seattle as one of our speakers if you would like to share the R successes in your organisation.
