[Seminar] "Digital Graphics – What Every Scientist Should Know" by Prof. Charlie Weiss

This talk presents a foundation on digital graphics relevant to scientists. Specifically, this talk presents how to choose the appropriate types of graphics and graphics software to produce highest quality images with the smallest file sizes. It will also present how to avoid common pitfalls that can lead to grainy images, large image files, or the inadvertent alteration of image data. 

 

Dr. Charlie Weiss' interests span the areas of organic and inorganic chemistry, along with scientific computing. He earned a bachelor's degree from Carleton College, Ph.D. from Northwestern University and completed his postdoctoral work in the electrocatalysis group at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. His research has historically centered around the development of organometallic complexes and catalysts for organic reactions, but has more recently moved into digital data analysis and visualization using Python and Jupyter notebooks.
