In Conversation with Dr. Don Brown

Charlottesville is seeing increased activity and strength in both life sciences commercialization and data science, and much of this is due in part to the leadership of Dr. Don Brown, founding director of the UVA Data Science Institute and co-director of the Integrated Translational Health Institute of Virginia (iTHRIV).

In our May webinar, we talk to Don about the rise of the field of data science alongside bioinformatics, the convergence of the two, and what the future may hold. In the age of accelerated and personalized medicine, what are the parallels in innovation and breakthroughs and who is leading the charge?
