1 小时 26 分钟Welcome to the LSE Events podcast by the London School of Economics and Political Science.
Get ready to hear from some of the most influential international figures in the social sciences.
Welcome everybody to this evening's event and welcome to everybody who is listening in online.
My name is Ernestina Coast and I'm absolutely delighted to chair this evening's inaugural event,
Professor Tiziana Leone's inaugural lecture.
So I could start with my brief introduction with a standard academic slide,
or I could put up the slide I really want to use
because there's a superpower and Tiziana has the superpower and she often introduces herself to her students,
her postgraduate and research students as a data geek.
Now this is more than a throwaway term for Tiziana.
This is about a love and a passion for using, reusing,
sniffing out new sources of data, reusing older sources of data in interesting and innovative ways.
So we are absolutely reclaiming the phrase data geek.
There will be merch available after this lecture.
In my introduction I thought how am I going to sum up in less than 10 minutes somebody to give a flavour particularly for those of you who may know Tiziana less well.
Well one of the things you could know is that Tiziana loves a timeline so I thought do you know what Tiziana?
Have a timeline.
Here's your timeline.
Now this is a very shallow timeline.
I'd like a multi-dimensional one where I could layer in all sorts of aspects about Tiziana's career and her life.
