Abstract
This week Mae Macfarlane interviews Dr. Amelia Mcnamara, Associate professor from the Department of Computer Science. They discuss her philosophy about making statistical analysis clearer, and more understandable to the public. She also conducts research about using statistical software languages like R and Quorum to be more accessible to blind users and non-English speakers. And she promotes the ethical use of statistical data and provides examples of data manipulations in the media that have real world consequences.
