\"EMonson2\"<\/a>Data and Visualization Services is proud and excited\u00a0to welcome Eric Monson, Ph.D.<\/a>, our newest staff member. Eric\u00a0joins\u00a0the team as our Data Visualization Analyst, working with Angela Zoss to provide support for data visualization across Duke’s campus and community.<\/p>\n

Eric worked for several years under the supervision of Rachael Brady, who was the head of the Visualization Technology Group (now the Visualization and Interactive Systems<\/a> group), the founder\u00a0of the DiVE<\/a>, and a hub\u00a0for the visualization community at Duke. Though transitioning from work in\u00a0applied physics, Eric\u00a0quickly became an active member of the broader visualization research community, sharing\u00a0his experiences developing interactive visualization applications through\u00a0online forums and professional organizations. His natural design sense contributes to an\u00a0elegant portfolio of past work<\/a>, and his work on\u00a0projects in both the sciences and the humanities gives him an extremely wide range of experience with different datasets, tools, and techniques.<\/p>\n

\"ipca_web\"<\/a>Since DVS began offering\u00a0visualization services in 2012, Eric has been an active supporter and collaborator. While continuing to work as a Research Scientist, Eric has co-organized the Visualization Friday Forum<\/a>\u00a0speaker series, teamed up with Angela on\u00a0instructional sessions, and been an active supporter of visualization events and initiatives. He is an experienced and patient\u00a0instructor and will bring many years of consulting experience to bear in this new role.<\/p>\n

Over the past three years, demand for\u00a0visualization support has steadily increased at Duke. With an active workshop series,\u00a0guest lectures in a variety of courses, individual and small-group consultations, and programming such as the Student Data Visualization Contest,\u00a0DVS is very happy to be able to boast\u00a0two staff members with visualization expertise. In the near future,\u00a0we hope to\u00a0increase our visualization workshop offerings and\u00a0continue to\u00a0identify powerful but easy-to-use\u00a0tools and techniques\u00a0that will meet the needs of Duke visualizers. Taking advantage of\u00a0Eric’s background in sciences and humanities, DVS looks forward to being able to answer a broader range of questions and offer a more diverse set of solutions.<\/p>\n

Please join us in welcoming Eric to the team! \u00a0As always, feel free to\u00a0contact askdata@duke.edu<\/a> with any questions or data-driven research needs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
