Inspired by the parallels between a data science project workflow and the twists and turns that mark one’s career, the theme of the 2023 Symposium on Data Science and Statistics is “Beyond Big Data: Inquire, Investigate, Implement, Innovate.” It represents the curiosity, creativity, and ingenuity that distinguish and are encouraged by our community to progress this ever-evolving field.
