Computation + Journalism Symposium 2016

Data and computation drive our world, often without sufficient critical assessment or accountability. Journalism is adapting responsibly -- finding and creating new kinds of stories that respond directly to our new societal condition. Join us for a two-day conference at Stanford exploring the interface between journalism and computing. It will be a venue to seed new collaborations between journalists and computer and data scientists: a bazaar for the exchange of ideas between industry/practice and academia/research. Speakers and presenters include experts from all across the academic and media worlds -- including Stanford, The New York Times, University of British Columbia, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, Science Magazine and more. For more information and to register, visit: http://journalism.stanford.edu/cj2016/ Time for Saturday, October 1- 9am to 5pm
