Data Horror Stories: Avoid the Nightmare

October 31st @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Flyer for Data Horror Stories

Neglecting to develop and implement a file naming convention. Data hot mess.
Failing to sync and back up your data. Deadly data loss.
Saving your data to a proprietary file format. Walking dead data.
Facing the shame of having your publication retracted. The horror. The horror.

Data management is not easy, as is evidenced by these true horror stories of data quality gone wrong. Learn from (and wince at) these mistakes to avoid problems with your own projects.

Plus, come celebrate Halloween with free lunch and treats! 🥪🧁
