Download Transcript

In collaboration with the University Libraries' Research Hub, we are virtually and asynchronously hosting the Thomas M. Carsey Graduate Student Symposium throughout Love Data Week 2022 (February 14-18). Tom Carsey, former director of the Odum Institute and esteemed political scientist, was an advocate of graduate student research and support throughout his professional career.

This year, three finalists have submitted presentations of their social research projects. Our expert judges were given the chance to review the presentations and submit questions about them, which our finalists responded to as featured guests on Data Night.

In this episode, finalist Orla Putnam, PhD student in the Department of Speech and Hearing Sciences in the UNC School of Medicine, will respond to questions submitted about her project, "Understanding the research priorities of autistic female and nonbinary people."

Also be sure to check out her video presentation!
