We're featuring one of our NMDSI Affiliated Faculty members - Dr. Stephen Guastello. Guastello’s research interests fall into several areas but his current work is focusing on cognitive workload and fatigue. A good example of this is in corporate jobs, especially during this work-at-home period as a result of COVID-19. Through his research, Guastello has already encountered some new types of downsides to tele-work and is exploring out of the lab for some of his experiments.

Three Northwestern Mutual Data Science Institute affiliated faculty members are working to cultivate the next generation of tech talent in Milwaukee by making data science accessible to students.

Check out the recording of the live webinar hosted by Walnut Way and the Northwestern Mutual Data Science Institute that shares the results of our research project focused on increasing home ownership in the Lindsay Heights neighborhood.

Walnut Way Conservation Corp. is using data to develop a picture of homeownership, and the barriers that exist to it in its own backyard. The organization is doing this using new data tools and visualizations developed by a partnership between Northwestern Mutual, UW-Milwaukee and Marquette University called the Northwestern Mutual Data Science Institute (NMDSI).

Walnut Way, in conjunction with the Northwestern Mutual Data Science Institute, is hosting a webinar on April 22 to share the results of a research project focused on an initiative to increase home ownership in the Lindsay Heights neighborhood.

While the term “data science” may elicit images of complicated algorithms and artificial intelligence for the layperson, the Northwestern Mutual Data Science Institute is determined to use its research to improve the community.

The Northwestern Mutual Data Science Institute announced the focus of its first research project, where students will work to address social issues, including voter sentiment, equitable housing and the opioid crisis.

With the help of volunteers, Milwaukee-area students were taught 10,300 hours of code through NEWaukee and Milwaukee Tech Hub Coalition's "Hour of Code" initiative.
