Please join us for the seventh annual “Speed Data-ing” research collaboration event on November 2, 12–1pm (Eastern). This virtual event will bring together potential collaborators to discuss a range of digital humanities and computational social science research questions, methodologies, and data sets. This year, we will be holding Speed Data-ing in collaboration with the Digital Scholarship Group as a part of the Digital Humanities Open Office Hours series.

Speed Data-ing will feature lightning talks by Northeastern researchers, including several project supported by NULab Seedling and Travel Grants.

This year’s event will include presentations by:

• Silvio Amir, Computer Sciences, and Yakov Bart, Marketing, on the project “Characterizing the Impact of Influential Actors on the Dynamics of #MeToo Online Social Movement”

• Sina Fazelpour, Philosophy and Computer Sciences, on the project “Responsible Research and Innovation in the Age of Big Data” 

• Gina Nortonsmith, Northeastern University Library, on the Civil Rights and Restorative Justice project

Following the talks, there will be time for questions and discussion among the presenters and attendees. We hope to see you there!
