Our first joint CeDAR/UCD4IDS Conference was a success! More than 40 people participated including about 8 online participants. We learned about the latest research related to data science in our campus by six experts. Despite the UAW graduate student strike, quite a number of graduate students showed up! If you missed this conference, don't worry. Thanks to the great effort of Hasina Mamtaz of the Office of Research, video recordings of the talks are now available on the AggieVideo as follows. Due to my inexperience of conducting a hybrid conference using the Zoom Cart, the first talk by Patrice Koehl was only recorded for the last half. I'm sorry about that, but I learned how to do it better.
