In this episode, we talk with Professor Dominik Moritz (co-lead of CMU’s Data Interaction Group) about his work in data visualization and his efforts to make it more accessible for everyone, from the visually impaired to those who aren’t data science experts. We explore the motivation and functionality behind several libraries he has developed, and discuss his unique perspective on careers in both industry and academia.
