Podcast: Data Nation

IDSS takes a holistic and data-driven approach to analyzing complex, high-impact systems in society. In discussing the challenges our society faces – systemic racism, data privacy, misinformation, among others – we rely on expertise and knowledge from a variety of disciplines.

In the Data Nation podcast, IDSS faculty engage in conversations with industry experts on how to find solutions for these problems. Each episode unpacks a different example of how data can be used to lead, mislead, manipulate, and inform the public’s viewpoints and decisions.
