Introduction to Bash + Git

October 8, 2021, 9:00am
This workshop will start by introducing you to navigating your computer’s file system and basic Bash commands to remove the fear of working with the command line and to give you the confidence to use it to increase your productivity. And then working with Git, a powerful tool for keeping track of changes you make to the files in a project.

Political Science

Hi! I am a PhD candidate in the Political Science Department at UC Berkeley. My dissertation traces the emergence of disability rights groups in Africa, focusing on Zambia and Malawi, and examines factors influencing their effectiveness. I use mixed methods, including archival work, field interviews, participant observation, and surveys for data collection.

My data analysis techniques include text analysis, social network analysis, means tests, and regressions. In my free time, I enjoy moderately difficult hikes, walks along the beach with my dog, Princess, and...

Senior Data Science Fellow 2025-2026, Data Science Fellow 2024-2025
Linguistics

I am a fourth-year PhD student in Linguistics, with a focus in sociophonetics and phonology. In my research, I'm interested in how understudied speech communities (Andalusians, southern Spain; Lobi and Tonko Limba, West Africa) and often-relegated aspects of social identity (sexuality, gender normativity) can inform new approaches to theory and methodology and how we conceptualize the interfaces between linguistic subfields.

I'm also involved in language documentation/revitalization work for Lobi and the development of automated phonetic methods, particularly for...

Carly Karrick

Data Science & AI Fellow 2025-2026
Department of Environmental Science, Policy, and Management

Carly is a Ph.D. candidate in the Environmental Science, Policy, and Management Department. As an environmental microbiologist, Carly is excited by questions about how microorganisms influence host health. Specifically, Carly studies how microalgae, bacteria, and viruses influence coral disease in the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico, and how these microorganisms are distributed on Pacific coral reefs. Her research utilizes a range of data science and bioinformatic tools to integrate DNA- and RNA-based signatures of microbial activity with microscopy image analysis. Carly received...
