TEST: Python Data Wrangling and Manipulation with Pandas

August 22, 2024, 2:00pm
Pandas is a Python package that provides fast, flexible, and expressive data structures designed to make working with 'relational' or 'labeled' data both easy and intuitive. It enables doing practical, real world data analysis in Python. In this workshop, we'll work with example data and go through the various steps you might need to prepare data for analysis.

TEST: Python Fundamentals: Parts 1-3

Hellina Hailu Nigatu

Data Science for Social Justice Senior Fellow 2024
Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS)

I am a PhD student at UC Berkeley in the EECS department co-advised by Prof. Sarah Chasins and Prof. John Canny. My research interest broadly lies in the intersection of AI and HCI, with a focus on making usable AI tools accessible to end users.

I am currently looking into making NLP tools usable and accessible for low-resourced languages. I am also interested in the impact of AI on society, specifically in how it affects Global Majority countries and communities. Outside of research, I like to read books, make and drink traditional Ethiopian coffee, knit,...

Maddie Taylor

Data Science for Social Justice Fellow 2024
Environmental Science, Policy and Management

Maddie is a third year Ph.D. Student in Environmental Science, Policy, & Management. Their research brings together disability studies and environmental justice to explore how disabled and chronically ill communities are affected by climate change.

They graduated from Barnard College in 2017, and their experiences navigating ableism while working in the environmental field led them to their current research interest at UC Berkeley. In their free time they enjoy knitting, playing music, and exploring the Bay Area with their dog, Winnie.
