50 Shades of Grey – The Psychology of a Data Scientist

Unless you've recently graduated from one of the new Data Science courses that have been popping up online and in various universities around the world, then becoming a Data Scientist was most likely slightly accidental and was more about the journey than the destination. I started out as a physicist and had a strong mathematical grounding, but I had a passion for medicine. After completing my bachelor's degree I took a master's degree in medical physics. This is where I gained an appreciation for the importance of image analysis and the role that data plays in medicine. I created a virtual model of a human torso by segmenting images from the Visible Human Project.
