Mathematicanow Data scientist Cindy Hu recently presented her work on using wastewater testing to help prevent opioid abuse—then saw her presentation turned into art. “The artist was creating the #infographic as I was speaking. A pretty novel way to summarize key points!” #ciesummit2019 #researchlife Take a look.

ROSEANA BESS, senior researcher:

Mathematicanow “I always wanted to work with children and families. My interest is using qualitative data to understand and improve the system that seeks to serve them. But it’s important to realize that ‘the system’ has many different parts: programs, employees, and clients whose needs are always evolving. So my work is to do research that addresses an overarching structure. I talk to people who receive services, people who work in agencies, administrators, policymakers, and more. Together, these voices tell a story of how progress is being made. My goal is to offer systematic, not piece-by-piece, strategies for improvement. I’ve worked in the system, too—as a caseworker in New York City and with DC’s Child & Family Services Agency. After 25 years, I’ve seen some things get better. There are fewer children in foster care. And many more people in the field understand the critical importance of evidence and evaluation. I’m grateful to have the opportunity to carry forward program and practice improvement on a level where real change can mean so much to so many.” #childwelfare #nationalchildabusepreventionmonth #mymathematica #ProgressTogether
