Translational Data Analytics
“Translational” is often used in the clinical sciences and refers to acting as a bridge between “bench” research and the patient’s bedside. In the context of data analytics, “translational” means that you will not only be able to perform specialized analytics, but you will be able to translate this technical information into accessible and understandable data stories which people can easily understand.
