Ofir is an experienced data scientist working at the Centre for Effective Global Action.
I found the interview inspiring, yet practical. I’ve had aspirations to work in global health as a data scientist for some time now, and I’d strongly encourage anyone else interested in the topic to listen to the entire interview.</description></item></channel></rss>
