The event, held in the faculty's Auditorium (C. Pau Gargallo, 14) from 12:30 to 14:00, pays tribute to John Tukey, recognized as a pioneer in exploratory data analysis and for coining terms like 'bit' and 'software'.
The inaugural lecture will be delivered by Kiko Llaneras, a Doctor of Engineering and data journalist for the newspaper El País. Llaneras will share his insights on current statistical applications and the value of data in contemporary society.
The event is open to the entire university community of the UPC.
