R for the Rest of Us Podcast Episode #12: R and Covid-19 (Chris Knox)
Update: 2023-06-06
Description
In this episode, I speak with Chris Knox, who is currently the Head of Data Journalism at the New Zealand Herald. Prior to that, he worked at the New Zealand ministry of health, where he led an analytics team focused on New Zealand's COVID response.
During our conversation, Chris highlights why he considers R as the optimal tool for data analysis and reporting, especially when dealing with frequently changing data sources and parameters. He also emphasizes the benefits of using R in a collaborative environment, where junior analysts can be quickly integrated into the data analytics and reporting process and assume significant responsibilities, thanks to the reproducibility of R code.
