Sagan National Colloquium: William Ray, Ph.D.

The Sagan National Colloquium presents William Ray, Ph.D., assistant professor of pediatrics at The Ohio State University College of Medicine and a faculty researcher at the Battelle Center for Mathematical Medicine within the Research Institute at Nationwide Children’s Hospital. Ray’s laboratory addresses problems related to human-data interface and data visualization. In particular, he focuses on understanding the disconnect between complex biological systems and currently applied data analysis techniques as well as on developing techniques that are more appropriate to the data and the needs of biomedical researchers. Ray will speak in the Benes Rooms of Ohio Wesleyan’s Hamilton-Williams Campus Center, 40 Rowland Ave., Delaware.

Each year, OWU’s colloquium takes an in-depth look at an issue of global importance. The 2016-2017 lecture series focuses on the growing importance of “Data in our Lives.” Learn more about the colloquium at www.owu.edu/snc.
