From a clean lab to dirty barns — •Sonja Zeißner — VetVise GmbH, Hannover, Germany

If you happen to love academia, but you also have a family and don't want to move every two years, what do you do? Right, you leave academia. I, however, found a job that is still fairly close to doing research.

We are going to take a look at what I do as a data scientist at VetVise GmbH, a start-up that is using data analysis and machine learning to improve yields and animal welfare in livestock farming. We are going to find out about the similarities and differences of working with elementary particles and chickens. And we are going see if getting a Ph.D. in HEP can actually prepare you for working with data from pig barns.
