DDDI’s 2025 Summer Hangouts program offers students the opportunity to participate in informal, hands-on tutorials led by our postdoctoral research fellows. These tutorials are open to students from all backgrounds and skill levels and cover various data science methods and topics.

Our Hangouts series this year will explore machine learning, statistics, optimization, and generative AI for scientific discovery across fields. Hangouts will be held twice a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays, from June 10th through June 25th. A pizza lunch will be provided.
